Vincent Tassion received the 2019 Rollo Davidson Prize in recognition of his extensive achievements in disordered systems and percolation.
Vincent Tassion has been an Assistant Professor at the Department of Mathematics at ETH Zurich and a SwissMAP participant since January 2017. His area of research covers phase transitions in statistical physics models, such as percolation or the Ising model. In recent years, Vincent Tassion has grappled with a number of unanswered questions in this area, including for models in three-dimensional space.
He has been awarded the prize in recognition of his extensive achievements in disordered systems and percolation.
