Talk:László Babai

message: Is he an immigrant? Has he got the US citizenship?
But he is a good teacher! I agree. Euty (talk) 12:34, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Two questions 

message: Perhaps not appropriate for wikipedia, but does anyone have a random recording of one of his lectures to put up here (with permission and whatnot of course)?  Because he is both informative and hilarious – not just because he sounds like  Dr. Nick though that certainly adds to it.  If anyone has a recording of him explaining "King Matthias Shepard's Method" (just to put a humorous Hungarian twist on teaching "Shepard's Method") that would be most excellent.  Its been over a decade since I took a course from him, but he is just that unforgettable (in a good way).149.155.222.31 (talk) 17:34, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Random Recording

message: Would it be appropriate to say in the article that one of the characters in the TV show Stargate Atlantis mentions applying Babai's work on combinatorics in the episode "First Contact"? 68.40.50.24 (talk) 05:01, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Popular culture 

message: Professor Babai will soon be presenting a new graph isomorphism algorithm, as reported in multiple locations, so this page is likely to have increased activity in the coming days. --Cogniac (talk) 19:56, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: According to Babai's own page he gave a talk today, and another on November 24. The new algo is supposed to be much faster than the previous record. Ad Huikeshoven (talk) 20:39, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: There's a report of some of the talk contents at http://jeremykun.com/2015/11/12/a-quasipolynomial-time-algorithm-for-graph-isomorphism-the-details/ (not yet a reliable source, but at least more informative than past information.) —David Eppstein (talk) 22:19, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

text: Eight months later, I came to this page hoping to find the status, even if that status was "the proof is still being peer-reviewed."  Nothing.  I assume it's still being reviewed, but can this be explicitly stated? Mcswell (talk) 02:28, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: It was presented at STOC 2016. That sort of conference includes peer reviewing, but not at the level of detail that one would expect of a journal paper. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:09, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

text:  January 9, 2017: update on Babai's homepage, the quasipolynomial claim is restored. Thus, I'll delete the sentence about "retracted quasipolynomial claim" in the graph isomorphism section. Zimboras (talk) 23:16, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
