Peter Steven Ozsváth (born October 20, 1967) is a professor of mathematics at Princeton University. He created, along with Zoltán Szabó, Heegaard Floer homology, a homology theory for 3-manifolds.
Education
[edit]Ozsváth received his Ph.D. from Princeton in 1994 under the supervision of John Morgan; his dissertation was entitled On Blowup Formulas For SU(2) Donaldson Polynomials.
Awards
[edit]In 2007, Ozsváth was one of the recipients of the Oswald Veblen Prize in Geometry.[1] In 2008 he was named a Guggenheim Fellow.[2] In July 2017, he was a plenary lecturer in the Mathematical Congress of the Americas.[3] He was elected a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 2018.[citation needed]
