Elon Lindenstrauss

Elon Lindenstrauss (Hebrew: אילון לינדנשטראוס; born August 1, 1970) is an Israeli mathematician, and a winner of the 2010 Fields Medal.

He was a member at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, then a Szego Assistant Prof. at Stanford University.

[7] In a series of two papers (one co-authored with Jean Bourgain) he made major progress on Peter Sarnak's Arithmetic Quantum Unique Ergodicity conjecture.

Recently with Manfred Einsiedler, Philippe Michel and Akshay Venkatesh, he studied distributions of torus periodic orbits in some arithmetic spaces, generalizing theorems by Hermann Minkowski and Yuri Linnik.

Together with Benjamin Weiss he developed and studied systematically the invariant of mean dimension[8] introduced in 1999 by Mikhail Gromov.
