Career

Soudry was born in 1956. [1] He received his PhD in mathematics from Tel Aviv University in 1983 under the supervision of Ilya Piatetski-Shapiro. [2] From 1983 to 1984, he was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study. [3] He is a professor of mathematics at Tel Aviv University. [4]

Research

Together with Stephen Rallis and David Ginzburg, Soudry wrote a series of papers about automorphic descent culminating in their book The descent map from automorphic representations of GL(n) to classical groups. Their automorphic descent method constructs an explicit inverse map to the (standard) Langlands functorial lift and has had major applications to the analysis of functoriality. [5] Also, using the "Rallis tower property" from Rallis's 1984 paper on the Howe duality conjecture, they studied global exceptional correspondences and found new examples of functorial lifts. [6]
