Zlil Sela is an Israeli mathematician working in the area of geometric group theory. He is a Professor of Mathematics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Sela is known for the solution〔 of the isomorphism problem for torsion-free word-hyperbolic groups and for the solution of the Tarski conjecture about equivalence of first order theories of finitely generated non-abelian free groups.〔 ==Biographical data== Sela received his Ph.D. in 1991 from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where his doctoral advisor was Eliyahu Rips. Prior to his current appointment at the Hebrew University, he held an Associate Professor position at Columbia University in New York.〔(Faculty Members Win Fellowships ) Columbia University Record, May 15, 1996, Vol. 21, No. 27.〕 While at Columbia, Sela won the Sloan Fellowship from the Sloan Foundation.〔〔(Sloan Fellowships Awarded ) Notices of the American Mathematical Society, vol. 43 (1996), no. 7, pp. 781–782〕 Sela gave an Invited Address at the 2002 International Congress of Mathematicians in Beijing.〔Z.
