Robert Rumely

Robert Scott Rumely (born 1952) is a professor of mathematics at the University of Georgia who specializes in number theory and arithmetic geometry.[1] He is one of the inventors of the Adleman–Pomerance–Rumely primality test.[2]

Life

Rumely was born on June 23, 1952 in Pullman, Washington. He graduated from Grinnell College in 1974,[3] and completed his Ph.D. in 1978 at Princeton University under the supervision of Goro Shimura.[4] After temporary positions at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University, he joined the University of Georgia faculty in 1981.[3]

He is the author or co-author of four books:

Capacity Theory on Algebraic Curves (Lecture Notes in Mathematics 1378, 1989)[6][7]
Existence of the Sectional Capacity (Memoirs of the American Mathematical Society 145, 2000)[8]
Potential Theory and Dynamics on the Berkovich Projective Line (Mathematical Surveys and Monographs 159, 2010)[9]
Capacity Theory with Local Rationality: The Strong Fekete-Szegö Theorem on Curves (Mathematical Surveys and Monographs 193, 2013)[10]

In 2015 he was elected as a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society "for contributions to arithmetic potential theory, computational number theory, and arithmetic dynamics".[11]

gollark: Hmm, my Rust compile times are only 20 seconds today, how pleasant.

gollark: I mean, what if DVORAK? HMMMMM?

gollark: Sinthorion, join heavserver and thus APIONET?
