Jeffry Ned Kahn is a professor of mathematics at Rutgers University notable for his work in combinatorics. Kahn received his Ph.D from The Ohio State University in 1979 after completing his dissertation under his advisor Dijen K. Ray-Chaudhuri. In 1980 he showed the importance of the bundle theorem for ovoidal Möbius planes.〔''Inversive planes satisfying the bundle theorem'', Journal Combinatorial Theory, Serie A, Vol.29, 1980, p. 1-19〕 In 1993, together with Gil Kalai, he disproved Borsuk's conjecture.〔.〕 In 1996 he was awarded the Pólya Prize (SIAM). In 2004, with David Galvin〔.〕 he made seminal contributions to the combinatorial theory of phase transitions. In 2012, he was awarded Fulkerson Prize (jointly with Anders Johansson and Van H. Vu) for determining the threshold of edge density above which a random graph can be covered by disjoint copies of a given smaller graph.〔Anders Johansson, Jeff Kahn, and Van H. Vu, "Factors in random graphs", ''Random Structures and Algorithms'' 33: 1-28, 2008.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Delbert Ray Fulkerson Prize )〕 Also in 2012, he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.〔(List of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society ), retrieved 2013-01-27.〕 ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jeff Kahn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
