Anna Gennadievna Erschler, née Dyubina,, is a Russian-born mathematician, working in France.
Education
Beginning in 1994 Erschler studied mathematics at Saint St. Petersburg State University receiving there her Master of Science In 1999 and then studied in the academic year 1999–2000 at Tel Aviv University. In 2001 she received her Doctor of Philosophy from Saint St. Petersburg State University under Anatoly Vershik with thesis Geometric und probabilistic properties of wreath products.
Career
She specializes in geometric group theory and probability theory, in particular, random walks on groups. In October 2012 she received her habilitation (These d"Etat) from the University of Paris 11. She was a postdoc in the academic year 2001–2002 at the Steklov Institute in Saint St. Petersburg and in the academic year 2002–2003 at the IHES at Paris and at IRMAR in Rennes.
From October 2003 to December 2005 she was Chargée de recherche at National Center for Scientific Research, University of Lille.
At National Center for Scientific Research, University Paris 11, she was from January 2006 to September 2013 Chargée de recherché and then from October 2013 to April 2013 Directrice de recherche. From May 2014 she has been Directrice de recherche at National Center for Scientific Research, DMA/École Normale Supérieure, Orsay.
In 2010 she was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Hyderabad and gave a talk Poisson–Furstenberg boundaries, large-scale geometry and growth of groups. In the summer of 2010 in Göttingen she was the ninth Emmy Noether visiting professor, lecturing on random walks and Poisson–Furstenberg boundaries.
She is a co-editor of the book Groups, Geometry and Dynamics.
