Sarah Peluse

Sarah Anne Peluse is an American mathematician specializing in arithmetic combinatorics and analytic number theory,[1][2] and known for her research on generalizations of Szemerédi's theorem on the existence of polynomial progressions in dense sets of integers.

The mathematics on offer there lasted her only for another two years, so she transferred to the University of Chicago, with Paul Sally and later Maryanthe Malliaris as mentors.

[6][7] She also became a member of the University of Chicago track and field team, which competed at two national championship meets,[6] and she was recognized as a Division III All-Academic Athlete by the NCAA.

[7][10] Peluse was the recipient of the 2022 Dénes König Prize, given at the SIAM Conference on Discrete Mathematics, for her work on polynomial generalizations of Szemerédi's theorem.

[2] She won the 2023 Salem Prize[11] (joint with Julian Sahasrabudhe) for contributions to additive combinatorics and related fields, including her work on quantitative density theorems for polynomial configurations in arithmetic progressions, which have found application in discrete harmonic analysis and ergodic theory.
