Karim Adiprasito

Karim Adiprasito is a mathematician at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem who works in combinatorics.

He was awarded the 2015 European Prize in Combinatorics[1] for his work in discrete geometry, in particular on realization spaces of polytopes citing "his wide-ranging and deep contributions to discrete geometry using analytic methods particularly for his solution of old problems of Perles and Shephard (going back to Legendre and Steinitz) on projectively unique polyhedra."

He completed his Ph.D. in 2013 at Free University Berlin under the supervision of Günter Ziegler.[2]
