He is a mathematician best known for his research into probability theory and ergodic theories. Born in Israel, he received his Ph.D. from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 90 under Hillel Furstenberg. He was a faculty member at both the Hebrew University and University of California at Berkeley. In addition, he was a Principal Researcher at Microsoft Research Redmond, Washington. Multiple female scientists have accused Peres of sexual harassment.

Peres was accused by several female scientists including Dana Moshkovitz and Anima Anandkumar of sexual harassment. Moshkovitz claimed that Peres harassed her during an informal interview for a job and she reported it to the Microsoft Theory Group. Moshkovitz also stated that Peres was promoted within a short time after her report. Peres quit his affiliate position at University of Washington in 2012. Peres resigned from his position as an affiliate at the University of Washington in 2012 after receiving notice that it would be investigating sexual harassment allegations.

Peres was invited to speak at the International Congress of Mathematicians 2002. Peres was also a co-recipient in 2011 of the David P. Robbins Prize, for his work on the maximum underhang problem. He also gave the Paul Turan Memorial Lecture that year. He was elected a fellow in the American Mathematical Society in 2012. He was elected as a foreign associate of The National Academy of Sciences in 2016. He was a plenary lecturer in July 2017 at the Mathematical Congress of the Americas.

Peres later became a professor in the statistics and mathematics departments. He was also a professor at Hebrew University. Peres joined Microsoft Research’s Theory Group in 2006. Peres was the principal researcher at Microsoft Research by 2011, and the manager of the Microsoft Research Theory Group. He is also an affiliate professor of mathematics at Washington State University and an adjunct professor at California State University, Berkeley.

Peres received the Rollo Davidson Prize 1995 and 2001, respectively. The Loeve Prize’s work was described in the Notices of American Mathematical Society. “A key breakthrough was to observe that certain intersection properties for Brownian movement and random walks are actually equivalent to (easier proof) survival properties of branching process. This resulted in extensive research on Brownian movement sample path properties, including the fractal dimension at the frontier of two-dimensional Brownian Motion and the precise study of its thick points and cover times.

In November 2018 three Israeli computer scientists Irit Dinur, Oded Goldreich and Ehud Friedgut wrote a letter to the community mentioning some allegations of sexual harassment against Peres and proposed a guideline of not making invitations to junior researchers that may be viewed as intimate. In response Peres wrote a letter to the community and said “I regret all cases in the past where I have not followed this principle. I had no intention to harass anyone but must have been tone deaf not to recognize that I was making some people very uncomfortable. As I wrote above, I promise to adhere to this principle in the future.”
