Vitaly Bergelson

Vitaly Bergelson 2012

Vitaly Bergelson (* 1950 in Kiev ) is an Israeli mathematician .

Career

Bergelson received his doctorate in 1984 under Hillel Fürstenberg at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem ( Applications of ergodic theory to combinatorics ). He taught at the Technion and is a professor at Ohio State University .

Bergelson deals with ergodic theory and combinatorics . He proved his doctoral Alexander Leibman a polynomial generalization of the set of Szemerédi (polynomial Szemerédi theorem). More precisely, they proved a polynomial version of a multi-dimensional generalization of Szemeredi's theorem by Katznelson and Fürstenberg. He also worked with Terence Tao and Tamar Ziegler .

In 2012 he became a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society . In 2006 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Madrid (Ergodic Ramsey Theory: A Dynamical Approach to Static Theorems).
