Interview at Cirm: Terence TAO

Показать описание

Terence Tao (born 17 July 1975) is an Australian-American mathematician who has worked in various areas of mathematics. He currently focuses on harmonic analysis, partial differential equations, algebraic combinatorics, arithmetic combinatorics, geometric combinatorics, compressed sensing and analytic number theory. As of 2015, he holds the James and Carol Collins chair in mathematics at the University of California, Los Angeles. Tao was a co-recipient of the 2006 Fields Medal and the 2014 Breakthrough Prize in Mathematics.

Terence Tao: "I am a Professor at the Department of Mathematics, UCLA. I work in a number of mathematical areas, but primarily in harmonic analysis, PDE, geometric combinatorics, arithmetic combinatorics, analytic number theory, compressed sensing, and algebraic combinatorics. I am part of the Analysis Group here at UCLA, and also an editor or associate editor at several mathematical journals. Here are my papers and preprints, my books, my research blog, and the group blog on mathematics in Australia that I administrate.
I maintain a harmonic analysis mailing list and contributed to the DispersiveWiki project. I used to maintain a harmonic analysis page for conferences and other links".

"An integration approach to the Toeplitz square peg problem"

The Toeplitz square peg problem asks if every simple closed curve in the plane inscribes a square. This is known for suciently regular curves (e.g. polygons), but is open in general. We show that the answer is armative if the curve consists of two Lipschitz graphs of constant less than 1 using an integration by parts technique, and
give some related problems which look more tractable.
