Tibor Szabó


I am a professor in Mathematics at the Freie Universität Berlin.
Before coming to Germany I held positions in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at McGill University, the Theory of Combinatorial Algorithms group at the ETH Zürich, and also spent a few years as a member of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton and as a J.L. Doob Research Assistant Professor at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign.
I received my Ph.D from The Ohio State University where my advisor was Ákos Seress .

Here is my CV.

Research

My research interests lie in the fields of combinatorics and combinatorial optimization. I am interested in extremal problems, random structures and algorithms, pseudorandom graphs, positional games and the combinatorics of linear programming. I am particularly fascinated by the different tools of algebra, probability theory and topology applicable to combinatorics.
