Vladimir Markovic (* 1973 in Germany ) is a Yugoslav-American mathematician. He deals with low-dimensional geometry and topology ( hyperbolic geometry ) and Riemann surfaces (Teichmüller theory).

Markovic studied from 1992 at the University of Belgrade , where he completed his diploma in 1995 and received his doctorate under Miodrag Mateljevic in 1998 ( clearly extremal, quasi- conformal images and stationary points on the energy integral , Yugoslavian). From 1998 to 2000 he was Assistant Professor at the University of Minnesota and from 2001 Lecturer , from 2004 Reader and from 2006 to 2011 Professor at the University of Warwick . From 2006 to 2008 he was also an Associate Professor at the State University of New York at Stony Brook . He has been a professor at Caltech since 2011 , currently on leave. In 2012 he was visiting professor at the Institut Henri Poincaré . He is currently the Sadleirian Professor of Pure Mathematics at Cambridge University .

In 2002 he received an EPSRC Advanced Research Fellowship Award, in 2004 the Whitehead Prize and in 2004 the Leverhulme Prize. In 2012 he and Jeremy Kahn received the Clay Research Award for work in hyperbolic geometry : their proof that there is an immersed , -injective , closed surface in every closed hyperbolic 3-manifold , and their proof of the honorary award presumption . This means that for two compact hyperbolic Riemannian surfaces there exist finite superpositions which are arbitrarily close with regard to the Teichmüller metric . In 2013 he proved the Schoen conjecture .

In 2014 he was elected to the Royal Society , which in the same year honored him with a Wolfson Research Merit Award . In 2014 he was invited speaker at the ICM in Seoul ( The surface subgroup and the Ehrenepreis Conjectures ).
