Alexei Entin

Prof. Alexei Entin is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Theoretical Mathematics at Tel Aviv University's Faculty of Exact Sciences. His research focuses on advanced mathematical structures within number theory and arithmetic geometry.

• B.Sc. in Mathematics, Tel Aviv University, 2008
• M.Sc. in Mathematics, Tel Aviv University, 2011
• Ph.D. in Mathematics, Tel Aviv University, 2014

His research spans Number Theory, Arithmetic of Function Fields, and Arithmetic Geometry, investigating deep connections between algebraic structures and geometric interpretations in finite fields. This work contributes to foundational understanding in pure mathematics with implications for cryptographic systems and algebraic coding theory.

Dr. Entin received multiple prestigious awards during his doctoral studies, including dual Buchmann Scholarships (2013-2014) and the Rothschild Scholarship (2014), recognizing exceptional promise in mathematical research.

• Buchmann Scholarship for excellent Ph.D. students (2013, 2014)
• Rothschild Scholarship for excellent Ph.D students (2014)
• Department award for excellent Ph.D. students, School of Mathematics (2014)

Following his Ph.D., he held a membership at the Institute for Advanced Study (2014) and served as a Szegő Assistant Professor at Stanford University (2015) before joining Tel Aviv University's faculty in 2017. His current work continues to explore asymptotic phenomena in function field arithmetic and related geometric constructions.
