Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox scientist Benedict Hyman Gross is an American mathematician who is a professor at the University of California San Diego,[1] the George Vasmer Leverett Professor of Mathematics Emeritus at Harvard University, and former Dean of Harvard College.[2]

He is known for his work in number theory, particularly the Gross–Zagier theorem on L-functions of elliptic curves, which he researched with Don Zagier.

Education and Professional career

Gross graduated from The Pingry School, a leading independent school in New Jersey, in 1967 as the valedictorian. In 1971, he graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Harvard University. He then received an M.Sc. from Oxford University as a Marshall Scholar in 1974 before returning to Harvard and completing his Ph.D. in 1978, under John Tate.[2][3]

After holding faculty positions at Princeton University and Brown University, Gross became a tenured professor at Harvard in 1985[2] and remained there subsequently, as Dean of Harvard College from 2003 to 2007.[4]

Benedict Gross was the mathematical consultant for the 1980 film It's My Turn containing the scene[5] in which actress Jill Clayburgh, portraying a mathematics professor, impeccably proves the snake lemma.[6][7]

Awards and honors

Gross is a 1986 MacArthur Fellow.[8]

Gross, Zagier, and Dorian M. Goldfeld won the Cole Prize of the American Mathematical Society in 1987 for their work on the Gross–Zagier theorem.[9] In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[10]

Gross was elected as a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1992[11] and as a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 2004.[12] He was elected to the American Philosophical Society in 2017.[13]

He was named as a Harvard University Professor from 2011 to 2016 for his distinguished scholarship and professional work.Шаблон:Cn
