Emmanuel Jacob is a Visiting Associate Professor at NYU Shanghai. He has been an Associate Professor at École Normale Supérieure de Lyon in France, after he received his PhD in 2010 from Université Pierre et Marie Curie in Paris, France.
Jacob's research interests span several areas of probability theory, particularly in connection with complex systems, graphs, and geometry. His recent work includes continuum percolation models featuring long-range and inhomogeneity effects, interacting particle systems such as the contact process on static or dynamic scale-free networks, and the study of random maps and the Brownian sphere.
