Math Faculty Win Nearly $1 Million in NSF Grants

Five members of the School of Physical Sciences' mathematics department have
earned three-year National Science Foundation grants totaling almost $1 million
to support their research: Peter Li, Chancellor's Professor, received $236,000 to
study the structure of certain classes of manifolds; Timur Oikhberg,
assistant professor, $85,000 to investigate geometric properties of operator
spaces; Karl Rubin, the Edward and Vivian Thorp Professor of Mathematics,
$265,000 to study elliptic curves; Ronald Stern, dean of physical sciences, $240,000

Terng, Ein Invited to Give Lectures at International Math Congress

Math professors Chuu-Lian Terng and Lawrence Ein have been invited to
give lectures in geometry and algebra, respectively, at the 2006
International Congress of Mathematicians to be held next summer in Madrid
~V a rare distinction for a single department to have two invited
speakers, particularly in different specialties. Ein, a new member of the
math faculty, is on leave at the University of Illinois at Chicago until
June 2006.
