Maria Gordina

Maria (Masha) Gordina (born January 13, 1968)[1] is a Russian-American mathematician.[2] She is a professor of mathematics at the University of Connecticut. Her research is at the interface between stochastic analysis, differential geometry, and functional analysis, including the study of heat kernels on infinite-dimensional groups.[3]

Gordina is the daughter of mathematician Mikhail (Misha) Gordin.[4]

Education and career

Gordina earned a diploma in 1990 from Leningrad State University, and became an assistant professor at the Leningrad Electrotechnical Institute.[5] She completed her doctorate in 1998 from Cornell University; her dissertation, Holomorphic functions and the heat kernel measure on an infinite dimensional complex orthogonal group, was supervised by Leonard Gross.[5][6] Gordina held a post-doctoral appointment at McMaster University. She was awarded a National Science Foundation postdoctoral fellowship in 2000, and conducted research at the University of California, San Diego. In 2003 Gordina joined the University of Connecticut faculty.[5]

Gordina serves on the editorial boards of Forum Mathematicum [7], the Electronic Journal of Probability [8], and Electronic Communications in Probability [9].

Honors

Gordina was awarded a Humboldt Research fellowship in 2005 (with renewals), and the Ruth I. Michler Memorial Prize of the Association for Women in Mathematics in 2009. She was named a Simons Fellow [10] (2016) in Mathematics and Physical Sciences.

gollark: no.
gollark: Maybe your networking setup has been infected with coronavirus.
gollark: They're already trying to snoop on everyone's private communications with the rather evil "EARN IT" (we need to stop these acronyms) thing.
gollark: We don't control earthquakes (much), but the world is increasingly connected and biotechnology is improving, so pandemics might get worse... climate change remains a problematic longer-term thing...
gollark: I want 2019 back. All these disastrous things are ~~quite bad for the economy~~ worrying, and I wonder if this is going to become a general trend.
