Steven Alpern is a professor of mathematics at the London School of Economics. He has made a significant contribution to both the fields of search games and the Rendezvous Problem,[1] informally introducing the rendezvous problem as early as 1976. His collaborators include Shmuel Gal, Vic Baston and Robbert Fokkink.
Prof. Alpern studied at Princeton University before going to graduate school at the Courant Institute where he received his PhD in Mathematics under the supervision of Peter Lax in 1973 "On Approximating Measure Preserving Homeomorphisms" [2]
