Rate My Professor Edward Frenkel

Among his major publications are the books Langlands Correspondence for Loop Groups (Cambridge University Press, 2007), Vertex Algebras and Algebraic Curves (with D. Ben-Zvi, American Mathematical Society, 2001; second edition, 2004), and Love and Math (Basic Books, 2013), a New York Times bestseller named one of the best books of the year by Amazon and iBooks, winner of the Euler Book Prize from the Mathematical Association of America, and translated into 19 languages. Notable papers include 'On the geometric Langlands conjecture' (with D. Gaitsgory and K. Vilonen, Journal of the AMS, 2002), 'Geometric Endoscopy and Mirror Symmetry' (with E. Witten, Communications in Number Theory and Physics, 2008), 'Formule des Traces et Fonctorialité: le Debut d'un Programme' (with R. Langlands and B.C. Ngô, Annales des Sciences Mathématiques du Québec, 2010), and 'A general framework for the analytic Langlands correspondence' (with P. Etingof and D. Kazhdan, Pure and Applied Mathematics Quarterly, 2024). Frenkel's work has significantly influenced connections between number theory, representation theory, and mathematical physics. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society, and winner of the Hermann Weyl Prize in mathematical physics.
