Naftali Tsitverblit was born on the 29th of October 1963 in Kiev, Ukraine; the son of Isaac Avraham and Zoya (Beletsky) Tsitverblit.
In 1987, he graduated from Kiev Polytechnic Institute, Master of Science. In 1995, Naftali Tsitverblit graduated from Tel-Aviv University, Doctor of Philosophy.
He was an Engineer, Scientific Research Institute of Robotics, Kiev, 1985-1987. Naftali Tsitverblit was a visiting scientist, Cornell University, 1994. He was a Postdoctoral fellow, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University, 1995-1997. He worked as a Geophysical Fluid Dynamics fellow, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, Massachusetts, 1996. Naftali Tsitverblit worked as a Teaching assistant, instructor, mechanical engineering, Tel-Aviv University, 1988-1994, volunteer researcher, 1997-2017. Since 2017 he is an Independent researcher.
He discovered two new mechanisms for convection in double-component fluid systems, resulting from different component conditions at a fluid boundary; this includes discovery of finite-amplitude steady flows arising from one such a convective mechanism that are disconnected from the conduction state. There is also his discovery of mechanism for three-dimensionality of instability disturbances.
He researched multiplicity of the equilibrium states in laterally heated stably stratified fluid systems and its role in explaining diversity of previous observations in such systems. His other achievements are clarification of nature of the oscillatory instability in confined vortex flows with vortex breakdown and formulation of general method for identification of nature of complex instability mechanisms; identifying mechanisms and their role in various fluid mechanical configurations.
Naftali Tsitverblit researched the foundations of general relativity, cosmology. In the framework of general relativity, he discovered proof of spatially flat vacuum state for a nonsingular initial universe with insights into gravitational nature of vacuum density and into matter (antimatter) creation, CPT. He also suggested a nonsingular interpretation of general relativity as covariant energy-momentum conservation in such a macroscopically continuous material system as the universe.
