Christine Guenther

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christine Guenther is an American mathematician known for her research on the differential geometry of manifolds, including the Ricci flow. She is a distinguished professor of mathematics at Pacific University.[1]

Guenther graduated from Stanford University in 1989 with a bachelor's degree in music. After earning a master's degree in mathematics in 1993 from the University of Washington,[1] she completed her Ph.D. in 1998 at the University of Oregon, under the supervision of James A. Isenberg.[1][2] She joined the Pacific University faculty in 1988 and became a Distinguished University Professor at Pacific University in 2016.[3]

She is a co-author of the four-volume book series Ricci Flow: Techniques and Applications (American Mathematical Society, 2007, 2008, 2010, and 2015)[4] and of Extrinsic Geometric Flows (Graduate Studies in Mathematics 206, 2020).[5]
