Julián Masliah

Two-time IMO silver medalist for Argentina (2017, 2018) and 2016 Iberoamerican bronze medalist. UBA mathematics graduate (Licenciado en Matematica, 2024) whose licenciatura thesis and 2024 UMA talk concerned the Willmore conjecture via geometric measure theory.

• Completed a Licenciatura en Matematica at UBA FCEN in 2024 with a thesis titled 'La conjetura de Willmore' directed by Gabriel Larotonda, engaging geometric measure theory (currents and varifolds).Jul 24, 2024
• Public contact email [contact omitted] is published on his 2024 UMA conference abstract - a direct, source-backed route for academic outreach.Jul 24, 2024
• Represented Argentina at the IMO in both 2017 and 2018, winning a Silver Medal each year - 20 points (rank 103) in 2017 and 30 points (rank 49, 91.9th percentile) in 2018, making him Argentina's top scorer on the 2018 team.Jul 14, 2018
• Listed among participants of the BMS-BGSMath Junior Meeting 2026 (Barcelona, CRM), a junior-researcher meeting - suggests he has progressed to doctoral-level mathematics research, likely abroad.Apr 21, 2026
• Won a Bronze Medal at the XXXI Iberoamerican Mathematical Olympiad in Antofagasta, Chile (2016) at age 15, on a team that took two golds and finished third - the country's best result in 15 years.Oct 3, 2016
• Presented 'Currents y Varifolds - para que nos sirven?' at the 2024 UMA reunion, explaining the currents/varifolds tools behind Marques-Neves' 2014 proof of the Willmore conjecture.Jul 24, 2024
• Began as a student at Colegio Pestalozzi, Buenos Aires - 15 at his 2016 Iberoamerican bronze; his trajectory ran from school olympiads through two IMO silvers to a UBA mathematics degree by 2024.Oct 3, 2016
• Also competed at APMO (Asian Pacific Mathematics Olympiad) for Argentina in the 2018/2019 cycle, alongside his IMO medals - a sustained high-level olympiad career.Mar 1, 2019
