Tim Austin, Professor of Mathematics at the University of California, Los Angeles, has been named the Ostrowski Prize recipient for his outstanding work in a remarkably broad array of fields, including probability theory, ergodic theory and dynamics, combinatorics, operator algebras, group cohomology, and metric geometry. He made several breakthroughs, solving old standing problems, while at the same time making deep theory-building contributions.

Tim Austin has participated as a core participant in IPAM’s 2018 long program Quantitative Linear Algebra, and a speaker for the workshop Random Matrices and Free Probability Theory.

Congratulations, Tim Austin!
