László "Laci" Babai (born July 20, 1950 in Budapest)〔(Curriculum vitae ) from Babai's web site, retrieved 2010-07-30.〕 is a Hungarian professor of mathematics and computer science at the University of Chicago. His research focuses on computational complexity theory, algorithms, combinatorics, and finite groups, with an emphasis on the interactions between these fields. He is the author of over 180 academic papers.〔 His notable accomplishments include the introduction of interactive proof systems,〔.〕 the introduction of the term Las Vegas algorithm,〔.〕 and the introduction of group theoretic methods in graph isomorphism testing.〔 Babai studied mathematics at Eötvös Loránd University from 1968 to 1973, received a Ph.D. from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 1975, and received a D.Sc. from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 1984.〔 He held a teaching position at Eötvös Loránd University since 1971; in 1987 he took joint positions as a professor in algebra at Eötvös Loránd and in computer science at the University of Chicago. In 1995 he began a joint appointment in the mathematics department at Chicago and gave up his position at Eötvös Loránd.〔 He is editor-in-chief of the refereed online journal ''Theory of Computing''.〔(''Theory of Computing'' editors ), retrieved 2010-07-30.〕 Babai was also involved in the creation of the Budapest Semesters in Mathematics program and first coined the name. ==Honors== In 1988, Babai won the Hungarian State Prize, in 1990 he was elected as a corresponding member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, and in 1994 he became a full member.〔 In 1999 the Budapest University of Technology and Economics awarded him an honorary doctorate.〔 In 1993, Babai was awarded the Gödel Prize together with Shafi Goldwasser, Silvio Micali, Shlomo Moran, and Charles Rackoff, for their papers on interactive proof systems.〔(1993 Gödel Prize ), ACM SIGACT, retrieved 2010-08-14.〕 In 2015, he was elected〔()〕 a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and won the Knuth Prize. 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「László Babai」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
