Greg Kuperberg (born July 4, 1967) is a Polish-born American mathematician known for his contributions to geometric topology, quantum algebra, and combinatorics.
He was born in Poland in 1967, but his family emigrated to Sweden in 1969 due to the 1968 Polish political crisis.
(video game clones of Sabotage, Pac-Man and Q*bert, respectively)[2] He enrolled at Harvard University in 1983 and received a bachelor's degree in 1987.
[3] Upon leaving Harvard, Kuperberg studied at the University of California, Berkeley under Andrew Casson, receiving a Ph.D. in geometric topology and quantum algebra in 1991.
From 1991 until 1992, Kuperberg was a NSF postdoctoral fellow and adjunct assistant professor at Berkeley, and from 1992 to 1995 held a Dickson Instructorship at the University of Chicago.
