Publications

My current interests lie in number theory (automorphic forms), topology, group theory and metric geometry. This has led me to problems in representation theory, dynamical systems, analysis and combinatorics.

Miscellany

I co-organize the online West Coast Dynamics Seminar

I try to informally assist honours students in getting the most out of their degree – drop by if you think I can help you.

If you want to locate me try my co-ordinates. The best way to reach my is via e-mail. I am "lior" (at) Math.UBC.CA.


Academic Time-line

I joined UBC in fall 2008.

I spent AY 2005-2006 and AY 2007-2008 as a member of the School of Mathematics of the Institute for Advanced Study.

In between I spent a year as a Benjamin Peirce Assistant Professor at the Department of Mathematics of Harvard University.

I used to be a student at the Department of Mathematics of Princeton University. I wrote my Ph.D. thesis under Prof. Peter Sarnak.

Before that I was a student at the Departments of Mathematics and Physics of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel. I wrote my undergraduate thesis under Prof. Avishai Dekel.
