Leben

Immerman studierte in Yale, wo er 1974 seinen Master-Grad erwarb. Ein PhD folgte an der Cornell University.

1995 erhielt er gemeinsam mit Róbert Szelepcsényi den Gödel-Preis für den Beweis des Satzes von Immerman und Szelepcsényi. 1999 erschien sein Buch über die Deskriptive Komplexitätstheorie.[1]
