Spencer Bloch is recognized among Jewish contributors to Science & Medicine — Algebraic geometry and algebraic K-theory
Bloch, an American mathematician of Jewish background, is a leading figure in algebraic geometry and algebraic K-theory. He introduced higher Chow groups and, through the Bloch-Kato and Bloch-Beilinson frameworks, deepened the study of algebraic cycles and their links to number theory. He worked for decades at the University of Chicago and shared the 2021 Wolf Prize in Mathematics.
