Early life
Goldberg was born and grew up in Tel Aviv. His parents, Gad Goldberg, born in Lublin (Poland) and Rachel Raya (née Farber), born in Vilnius (Lithuania), immigrated to Palestine shortly after Hitler became Germany's chancellor in 1933.
Career
After completing his undergraduate studies, Goldberg served in the Israel Defense Forces for three years. Released at the rank of captain, he resumed his studies, earning his Ph.D. from Tel Aviv University in 1973 under the supervision of Saul Abarbanel.[1] After a postdoctoral position at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), he joined the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology in 1979, and in due course became the Ruth and Samuel Jaffe Professor of Mathematics. In 2013 he retired as Professor Emeritus.[2]
Research
Goldberg has published over 80 research papers[3][4] and given over 100 talks at international conferences. His co-authors include Richard F. Arens, Michael Cwikel, Robert Guralnick, Thomas J. Laffey, W. A. J. Luxemburg, Ernst G. Straus, and Eitan Tadmor.[4] His visits to some of the world's leading universities have included sabbaticals at UCLA, California Institute of Technology (Caltech), and Université Paris Dauphine (Paris 9). He has served on over 20 editorial boards of mathematical journals and on numerous national and international professional committees.[5]
Goldberg began his scientific career by studying computational fluid mechanics. He then turned to a variety of other topics, including finite-difference approximations to hyperbolic and parabolic partial differential systems, linear and Multilinear algebra, matrix and operator theory, functional analysis, and various types of algebras.[4]
A substantial part of his work has focused on various aspects of norms, seminorms, and subnorms. One such project deals with a natural extension of the classical spectral radius to finite-dimensional power-associative algebras. This study, which encompasses the Cayley–Dickson algebras, is relevant to stability of norms and subnorms, and to the well-known Gelfand formula.[6]
