Nicholas Katz is recognized among Jewish contributors to Science & Medicine — Arithmetic algebraic geometry; monodromy
A professor at Princeton University, Katz works in arithmetic algebraic geometry, especially p-adic methods, monodromy and moduli. His deep results on how geometric families vary (monodromy) connect geometry to number theory, and he was an important sounding board for Andrew Wiles's proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. He is documented among Jewish mathematicians.
