Lai-Sang Young

Lai-Sang Young di Oberwolfach, 2009

Lai-Sang Lily Young (kelahiran 1952) adalah seorang matematikawan asal Hong Kong, yang memegang jabatan sebagai Henry & Lucy Moses Professorship of Science dan merupakan profesor matematika dan neurosains di Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences of New York University. Pemahaman risetnya meliputi sistem dinamikal, teori ergodik, teori kekacauan, teori probabilitas, mekanika statistik, dan neurosains. Ia dikenal karena mengenalkan metode pengembalian Markov pada 1998, yang ia pakai untuk memecahkan korelasi eksponennsial dalam biliar Sinai dan sistem dinamikal hiperbolik lainnya.
