Education

Dmitry Dolgopyat graduated from Moscow State School 57 mathematical class in 1989. [5]

From 1989 to 1994, he was an undergraduate student at Moscow State University. [6]

From 1994 to 1997, Dolgopyat was enrolled at Princeton University, where he earned a PhD under the guidance of Yakov Sinai. [7]

Career

From September 1999 to June 2003, Dmitry Dolgopyat served as an Assistant Professor at Penn State University. [8]

Dolgopyat joined the University of Maryland as an Associate Professor from September 2002 to June 2006. During this period, he also spent a year at the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) in Princeton (2002-2003). [9]

He briefly returned to Penn State University as a Professor from September 2006 to June 2007 before settling at the University of Maryland as a Professor in September 2007, a position he holds to the present day. [10]

Additionally, Dolgopyat spent a year at the University of Toronto and the Fields Institute from 2010 to 2011. [11]

He has also served on the editorial boards of the Journal of Modern Dynamics, Nonlinearity, Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems, Annales Henri Poincaré, and the Journal of the American Mathematical Society, as well as on the Prize Committee of the International Bolyai Prize Committee. [12]

Recognition

Dolgopyat was named a Distinguished University Professor in 2022 - the highest academic honor bestowed by the University of Maryland. [13]

In 2020, he was elected a foreign member of the Academia Europaea - a pan-European Academy of Humanities, Letters, Law, and Sciences. [14]

In 2009, he was awarded the Michael Brin Prize in Dynamical Systems for his fundamental contributions to the theory of hyperbolic dynamics. [15]

Outer billiards is a dynamical system based on a convex shape in the plane. Classically, this system is defined for the Euclidean plane but one can also consider the system in the hyperbolic plane or in other spaces that suitably generalize the plane. Outer billiards differs from a usual dynamical billiard in that it deals with a discrete sequence of moves outside the shape rather than inside of it.
