Trevisan Award

The Luca Trevisan Award for Expository Work is intended to promote and recognize high-impact work expositing ideas and results from the Theory of Computation. The exposition can have various target audiences, e.g. people in this field, people in adjacent or remote academic fields, as well as the general public. The form of exposition can vary, and can include books, surveys, lectures, video (e.g. course materials), and audio (e.g. podcasts) material, blogs and other media products. These variations in target audiences and forms of expositions are intended, with the choice between them each year left to the selection committee. The award may be given to an individual, or a small group who together produced this expository work.

The nomination process and award committee have not been finalized. The chair of the award committee is Salil Vadhan.
