Bo'az Klartag

Bo'az Klartag received his PhD from Tel Aviv University in 2004 under the supervision of Vitali Milman. In his thesis Klartag showed that a small number of Minkowski and Steiner symmetrizations suffice to bring a convex body in n-space close to a Euclidean ball.  His research interests include geometric problems in high dimension, in particular asymptotic convex geometry.  Bo'az was appointed as a Clay Research Fellow for a term of three years beginning September 2005.
