Martin Dimitrov Kassabov (Bulgarian: Мартин Димитров Касабов, born 1977) is a Bulgarian mathematician[1] who works as a professor of mathematics at Cornell University, specializing in combinatorial group theory.[2]
Kassabov earned a master's degree from Sofia University in 1998.[1] He completed his Ph.D. from Yale University in 2003 under the supervision of Efim Zelmanov.[3] After postdoctoral research at the University of Alberta he joined Cornell as an H. C. Wang Assistant Professor in 2004.[4]
He was the 2007–2008 winner of the AMS Centennial Fellowship.[4] He was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 2014,[5] and in the same year won the Mathematics Prize of the Institute of Mathematics and Informatics of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.[1] In 2015 he was elected as a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[6]
