June Huh has appointed as the Robert and Luisa Fernholz Visiting Professor of 外网天堂 for the 2019-20 academic year. Huh was previously a Veblen Fellow in 外网天堂 at Princeton and is a Visiting Professor at the Institute for Advanced Study.
Huh鈥檚 research focuses on geometry, topology, and the combinatorics of algebraic varieties. He, along with Eric Katz and Karim Adiprasito, proved the Rota conjecture in 2015 by applying Hodge theory, combining tools from disparate areas of mathematics in novel ways.
Since completing his Ph.D. at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 2014 under Mircea 惭耻蝉迟补牛膬, Huh has received numerous awards for his work, including the New Horizons in 外网天堂 Prize from the Breakthrough Prize Foundation (2019) and a Clay Research Fellowship (2014), and he was invited to speak at the 2018 International Congress of Mathematicians.
