Tamar Debora Ziegler is an Israeli mathematician known for her work in ergodic theory and arithmetic combinatorics. Much of her work has focused on arithmetic progressions, in particular extensions of the Green–Tao theorem.

Ziegler earned her Ph.D. in 2003 from Hebrew University under the supervision of Hillel Furstenberg.[2] After postdoctoral studies at Ohio State University, the Institute for Advanced Study, and the University of Michigan, she joined the Technion faculty in 2007, and moved back to Hebrew University in 2013.[3] In 2011 she won the Anna and Lajos Erdős Prize in Mathematics of the Israel Mathematical Union.[1]
