Michael T. Anderson

Michael T. Anderson (born November 18, 1950 in Boulder, Colorado)^[1] is an American mathematician. He is a professor of mathematics at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.^[2] His research concerns differential geometry including Ricci curvature and minimal surfaces.

After doing his undergraduate studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara,^[1] Anderson received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley in 1981 under the supervision of H. Blaine Lawson.^[3]

In 2012, Anderson became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.^[4]
