AI overview

I can see that Michael Kosterlitz is a British physicist, but the context provided doesn't include enough information about his specific work or why he matters for me to write an accurate 2-sentence overview that goes beyond that single fact. To write a helpful overview for a curious general reader, I would need additional context about his major contributions or discoveries.
