معرفی
Sergei Starchenko is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Notre Dame, affiliated with the College of Science. His research focuses on applications of model theory to real analytic geometry, geometric measure theory, and asymptotic analysis. He holds an M.S. (1983) and Ph.D. (1987) from Novosibirsk University, USSR. His work examines definable sets in o-minimal structures, emphasizing well-behaved first-order structures on the real numbers.
Starchenko's research interests include model theory’s role in understanding real functions’ differentiability and analyticity, as well as interactions with algebraic geometry and geometric topology. Notable contributions address o-minimal flows on nilmanifolds, Elekes–Szabó phenomena in hypergraphs, and applications of distal structures to combinatorial problems.
His publications span foundational model theory and interdisciplinary topics, including works on Zarankiewicz problems, Ramsey growth in NIP structures, and algebraic dynamics on tori. Starchenko actively engages with academic communities through conferences like Model Theory and Applications in Cetraro (2022) and Ravello (2013).
No specific scientific awards are listed, though his extensive publication record reflects sustained scholarly impact. He advises graduate students in mathematical logic and related fields, though specific advisees are not documented here.
