  • Steven Henry Strogatz (born August 13, 1959) is an American mathematician and the Jacob Gould Schurman Professor of Applied Mathematics at Cornell University. He is known for his contributions to the study of synchronization in dynamical systems, and for his work in a variety of areas of applied mathematics, including mathematical biology and complex network theory. In particular, his 1998 Nature paper with Duncan Watts, entitled "Collective dynamics of small-world networks", is widely regarded as a seminal contribution to the interdisciplinary field of complex networks, whose applications reach from graph theory and statistical physics to sociology, business, epidemiology, and neuroscience. As one measure of this paper's impact, it is the most highly cited article about networks in the past decade, according to the ISI Web of Science. It was also the sixth most highly cited paper in physics, with 2700 citations, between January 1, 1998 and August 31, 2008. Strogatz's books include the textbook Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos and the trade book Sync, chosen as a Best Book of 2003 by Discover Magazine. He filmed a series of lectures on chaos theory for the Teaching Company, released in 2008.
  • Steven H. Strogatz ist Professor für theoretische und angewandte Mechanik an der Cornell University in Ithaca, USA. Er ist vor allem für seine Arbeit im Gebiet der Synchronisation dynamischer Systeme bekannt geworden. Strogatz erwarb seinen Doktorgrad an der Harvard University im Jahre 1989 und lehrte im Anschluss am Fachbereich Mathematik des Massachusetts Institute of Technology, bevor er im Jahre 1994 an die Cornell University wechselte. Seine zahlreichen Veröffentlichungen umfassen die Gebiete Angewandte Mathematik, Theoretische Biologie und Chronobiologie (in Zusammenarbeit mit Arthur T. Winfree) sowie vor allem Kleine-Welt-Phänomen in Netzwerken.
  • Steven H. Strogatz es profesor de Mecánica Aplicada y Teórica en la Universidad de Cornell. Es conocido por sus contribuciones el estudio de la sincronización en sistemas dinámicos y en redes complejas. Ha publicado artículos en numerosas áreas de matemáticas aplicadas, incluyendo biología matemática y el fenómeno del "mundo pequeño", en redes. En este campo, publicó en 1998 un artículo fundamental junto a Duncan J. Watts, en la revista Nature, que ha tenido una enorme influencia posterior. Strogatz hizo el doctorado en Matemáticas aplicadas en la Universidad de Harvard, en 1986. Estuvo tres años con una beca postdoctral en Harvard y la Universidad de Boston. En 1989 pasó al Departamento de Matemáticas del MIT. En 1994 se trasladó a Cornell, donde ahora mismo es director del Centro de Matemáticas aplicadas.
  • Le sue importanti scoperte nell'ambito della teoria del caos e delle scienze della complessità ne hanno fatto uno dei protagonisti della ricerca odierna in questi campi e gli sono valse riconoscimenti prestigiosi. È un autore di moltissimi articoli scientifici e di un testo fondamentale sulla dinamica non lineare dei sistemi caotici. Sincronia è la sua prima opera di divulgazione. Vive ad Ithaca, nello stato di New York, con la moglie Carol e le loro due bambine Leah e Joanna.
