Gregory Margulis. Affiliation. Mathematics. From the Wolf Foundation: "At the center of Professor Gregory A. Margulis’s work lies his proof of the Selberg-Piatetskii-Shapiro Conjecture, affirming that lattices in higher rank Lie groups are arithmetic, a question whose origins date back to Poincaré.
