About Alex Iosevich

Biography

I received my B.S. in mathematics from the University of Chicago in 1989 and my Ph.D. in mathematics from UCLA in 1993 under the direction of Christopher Sogge. After positions at McMaster University, Wright State University, Georgetown University, and the University of Missouri, I joined the University of Rochester, where I have been Professor of Mathematics since 2010.

My research is driven by connections: between Fourier analysis and geometric measure theory, between continuous and finite settings, and between classical harmonic analysis and modern questions in signal recovery, learning theory, and data science.

People and mentoring

Mentoring is an integral part of my research life. I have advised or co-advised 38 past and current Ph.D. students, supervised 48 undergraduate honors theses, worked with 15 postdoctoral researchers, and collaborated with more than 200 coauthors. My advising emphasizes regular collaboration, increasing independence, and sustained support through the transition to academic or industry careers.
