Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox scientist Burton Rodin is an American mathematician known for his research in conformal mappings and Riemann surfaces. He is a professor emeritus at the University of California, San Diego.
Education
Rodin received a Ph.D. at the University of California, Los Angeles in 1961. His thesis, titled Reproducing Formulas on Riemann Surfaces, was written under the supervision of Leo Sario.[1]
Career
He was a professor at the University of California, San Diego from 1970 to 1994. He was chair of the Mathematics Department from 1977 to 1981, and became professor emeritus in June 1994.Шаблон:Cn
Research
Rodin's 1968 work on extremal length of Riemann surfaces, together with an observation of Mikhail Katz, yielded the first systolic geometry inequality for surfaces independent of their genus.[2][3]
In 1980, Rodin and Stefan E. Warschawski solved the Visser–Ostrowski problem for derivatives of conformal mappings at the boundary.[4] In 1987 he proved the Thurston conjecture for circle packings, jointly with Dennis Sullivan.[5]
Awards and honors
In 2012, Rodin was elected fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[6]
