Aviezri Siegmund Fraenkel,
an Israeli mathematician, computer scientist and pioneer in combinatorial game theory and game complexity, in particular interested in Wythoff's game and the game of Nim. He is affiliated with the Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot. Fraenkel was member of the team who built the WEIZAC, the first computer in Israel, and received his Ph.D. in 1961 from University of California, Los Angeles on Rational Approximations to Algebraic Numbers under advisor Ernst Gabor Straus ^[2] ^[3]. Aviezri Fraenkel is combinatorial game Section Editor of the ICGA Journal.
