معرفی
Professor Barak Weiss is a distinguished faculty member in the School of Mathematical Sciences at Tel Aviv University's Faculty of Exact Sciences. His research focuses on the intersection of dynamical systems, number theory, and geometry, particularly in the areas of homogeneous dynamics, ergodic theory, and Diophantine approximation.
Professor Weiss has made significant contributions to the understanding of translation surfaces, lattice orbits, and the dynamics of flows on homogeneous spaces. His work often bridges pure mathematics with applications in number theory and geometry, revealing profound connections between seemingly disparate fields. His research on horocycle dynamics, measure rigidity for fractal carpets, and the classification of cut-and-project sets has advanced our understanding of geometric structures and their dynamical properties.
His recent publications (2023-2025) demonstrate a strong focus on equidistribution phenomena, statistical properties of dynamical systems, and the application of homogeneous dynamics to problems in geometric number theory. A notable trend in his work is the interplay between geometric structures and their arithmetic properties, particularly in the context of Diophantine approximation.
Professor Weiss actively organizes the "Homogeneous Dynamics and Applications" seminar at Tel Aviv University, which has been running continuously since at least 2014 with detailed schedules available through 2025. This seminar serves as a hub for cutting-edge research discussions, featuring both local and international speakers working on dynamical systems and related areas.
He teaches advanced courses in analysis and supervises graduate students, with recent teaching assignments including Real Analysis for summer semester 2025. His office is located in Schreiber building, room 329, and his regular office hours are Tuesdays from 15:00-16:00.
