2015 - Fellow of the American Mathematical Society For contributions to discrete mathematics, including applications to computer science and physics.

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Geometry
  • Mathematical analysis
  • Combinatorics

Combinatorics, Sphere packing, Aztec diamond, Pure mathematics and Domino tiling are his primary areas of study. His Combinatorics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Discrete mathematics and Distribution. His Sphere packing research integrates issues from Linear programming, Function and Leech lattice.

Henry Cohn conducted interdisciplinary study in his works that combined Aztec diamond and Uniform distribution. In general Pure mathematics, his work in Tensor, Group algebra and Abelian group is often linked to Exponent linking many areas of study. Many of his Domino tiling research pursuits overlap with Rhombille tiling, Triangular tiling, Arrangement of lines and Substitution tiling.

His most cited work include:

  • Universally optimal distribution of points on spheres (313 citations)
  • A variational principle for domino tilings (297 citations)
  • A variational principle for domino tilings (297 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Henry Cohn mainly focuses on Combinatorics, Discrete mathematics, Sphere packing, Pure mathematics and Linear programming. In the subject of general Combinatorics, his work in Dimension is often linked to Aztec diamond, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His Coding theory, Equivalence and Random graph study, which is part of a larger body of work in Discrete mathematics, is frequently linked to Dense graph, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Henry Cohn combines subjects such as Fourier transform, Leech lattice and Euclidean space with his study of Sphere packing. His work on Field and Tensor as part of general Pure mathematics research is frequently linked to Fixed-function and Construct, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work carried out in the field of Linear programming brings together such families of science as Series and Exponential function.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Combinatorics (45.79%)
  • Discrete mathematics (28.04%)
  • Sphere packing (16.82%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Combinatorics (45.79%)
  • Sphere packing (16.82%)
  • Discrete mathematics (28.04%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of investigation include Combinatorics, Sphere packing, Discrete mathematics, Modular form and Linear programming. The Dimension research he does as part of his general Combinatorics study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Locally integrable function, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Sphere packing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Conformal map, Leech lattice, Exponential function and Field.

His research in the fields of Equivalence and Random graph overlaps with other disciplines such as Identifiability and Dense graph. His Linear programming research incorporates elements of Current algebra, Extrapolation and Dual. His Function course of study focuses on Core model and Constant factor and Point.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The sphere packing problem in dimension 24 (190 citations)
  • On cap sets and the group-theoretic approach to matrix multiplication (53 citations)
  • A conceptual breakthrough in sphere packing (42 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Geometry
  • Mathematical analysis
  • Quantum mechanics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Discrete mathematics, Sphere packing, Combinatorics, Mathematical proof and Equivalence. His work on Time complexity as part of general Discrete mathematics study is frequently connected to Stochastic block model, Estimator and Identifiability, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His Sphere packing study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Auxiliary function and Leech lattice.

His Combinatorics research is mostly focused on the topic Vertex. His studies in Mathematical proof integrate themes in fields like Quotient and Power law graphs. His research integrates issues of Limit theory and Random graph in his study of Equivalence.
