Wojciech Samotij

Wojciech Samotij is an Associate Professor at the School of Mathematical Sciences, Tel Aviv University. His research focuses on extremal and probabilistic combinatorics, Ramsey theory, large deviation theory, and additive number theory. He has held positions including Junior Research Fellow at Trinity College, University of Cambridge (2010–2014), and Post-doctoral researcher at Tel Aviv University (2010–2011, 2012–2013).

• PhD in Mathematics (2010), University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, supervised by Jozsi Balogh
• M.Sc. in Mathematics and Computer Science (2007), University of Wrocław

His recent work explores large deviation principles in random graphs, hypergraph containers, and extremal problems in probabilistic settings. Publications span journals like Annals of Probability, Duke Mathematical Journal, and Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, with key contributions to Ramsey-type theorems and entropy-based combinatorial analysis.

He has supervised graduate students in topics ranging from additive combinatorics to random graph theory, and taught courses including Probabilistic Methods in Combinatorics, Graph Theory, and Discrete Mathematics. His email contact is samotij@tauex.tau.ac.il and samotij@post.tau.ac.il.
