Abstract
Greg Hjorth suddenly and unexpectedly passed away on January 13, 2011 in Melbourne, at the age of 47, due to a heart attack. He was a remarkable person, a chess prodigy who competed internationally at a high level until his early 20s, then devoted himself to the study of philosophy and mathematics and went on to become a leading figure in the field of mathematical logic and its applications.
