Abstract
Bourgain’s work touches on several central topics of mathematical analysis: the geometry of Banach spaces, convexity in high dimensions, harmonic analysis, ergodic theory, and finally, nonlinear partial differential equations (P.D.E.’s) from mathematical physics. In all of these areas, he made spectacular inroads into questions where progress had been blocked for a long time.
