معرفی
Prof. Marc Lackenby is a Professor of Mathematics at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford. His research spans topology, geometry, group theory, and their intersections, particularly focusing on low-dimensional topology and geometric algorithms.
His editorial roles include serving as an editor for the International Mathematical Research Notices, Groups, Geometry and Dynamics, and the Forum of Mathematics, Pi and Sigma. He was previously an editor for the Journal of Topology (2007–2021) and the Journal of the LMS (2008–2013).
Recent publications highlight his work on hyperbolic knots, triangulation complexity of 3-manifolds, and applications of machine learning to topological problems. His research bridges classical geometric topology and modern computational methods.
Scientific awards include the LMS Whitehead Prize (2003), EPSRC Advanced Research Fellowship (2004–09), Philip Leverhulme Prize (2006), and the Frontiers of Science Award (2024). He was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) in 2010.
