Günter M. Ziegler
Günter M. Ziegler (Munich, 1963) is a prominent German mathematician specialized in discrete geometry and combinatorics. He earned his PhD at MIT in 1987 and has developed his academic career in Germany, serving as a professor at the Technical University of Berlin and, since 2011, at the Freie Universität Berlin, where he has been president since 2018. His research work has been recognized with awards such as the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (2001), the Chauvenet (2006), and the Leroy P. Steele (2018).
Among his most influential works are Lectures on Polytopes (1995), a fundamental text in convex geometry, and Proofs from THE BOOK (1998), co-written with Martin Aigner, which compiles elegant mathematical proofs and has been translated into multiple languages, including Spanish as El libro de las demostraciones. Ziegler has also promoted mathematical outreach through publications like Darf ich Zahlen? (2005), bringing complex concepts to the general public.
