He attended Princeton University, earning his doctorate in 1971 under the supervision of Kenkichi Iwasawa.[1] Greenberg's results include a proof (joint with Glenn Stevens) of the Mazur–Tate–Teitelbaum conjecture as well as a formula for the derivative of a p-adic Dirichlet L-function at s = 0 (joint with Bruce Ferrero). Greenberg is also well known for his many conjectures. In his PhD thesis, he conjectured that the Iwasawa μ- and λ-invariants of the cyclotomic Zp-extension of a totally real field are zero, a conjecture that remains open as of September 2012. In the 1980s, he introduced the notion of a Selmer group for a p-adic Galois representation and generalized the "main conjectures" of Iwasawa and Mazur to this setting. He has since generalized this setup to present Iwasawa theory as the theory of p-adic deformations of motives. He also provided an arithmetic theory of L-invariants generalizing his aforementioned work with Glenn Stevens. He was an invited speaker in International Congress of Mathematicians 2010, Hyderabad on the topic of "Number Theory."[2] In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[3] References1. ^http://www.math.washington.edu/~greenber/vita.html 2. ^{{cite web|title=ICM Plenary and Invited Speakers since 1897|url=http://www.mathunion.org/db/ICM/Speakers/SortedByCongress.php|publisher=International Congress of Mathematicians}} 3. ^List of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society, retrieved 2013-01-19.
