Here's the math department's memorial page for him: https://history.math.technion.ac.il/sites/inmemoriam/Paul-Erdos/ https://history.math.technion.ac.il/sites/inmemoriam/Paul-Er... my own Ph.D. research was very much inspired by his work on discrete and probabilistic combinatorics, expanded among others by my academic "grandfather" Noga Alon, another prolific mathematician.
