Professor Jeffrey Lagarias received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1974. In 1975 he joined AT&T Bell Laboratories as a member of the technical staff. Since 1995, he has been a Technology Consultant at AT&T Research Laboratories.
Research: While my original training was in analytic and algebraic number theory, I have since worked in many areas, both pure and applied, and consider myself a mathematical generalist. My interests include discrete geometry, dynamical systems, harmonic analysis (wavelets), low-dimensional topology, mathematical optimization, mathematical physics, number theory, and operations research.
