American mathematician
Robin Cope Hartshorne (/ˈ h ɑːr t s . h ɔːr n / HARTS -horn ; born March 15, 1938) is an Americanmathematician who is known for his work inalgebraic geometry .
Hartshorne was aPutnam Fellow in Fall 1958 while he was an undergraduate atHarvard University [ 1] (under the name Robert C. Hartshorne[ 2] ). He received a Ph.D. in mathematics fromPrinceton University in 1963 after completing a doctoral dissertation titledConnectedness of the Hilbert scheme under the supervision ofJohn Coleman Moore andOscar Zariski .[ 3] [ 4] He then became aJunior Fellow at Harvard University, where he taught for several years.[ 5] In 1972, he was appointed to the faculty at theUniversity of California, Berkeley ,[ 5] where he is a Professor Emeritus as of 2020.[ 6]
Hartshorne is the author of the textAlgebraic Geometry .[ 7] [ 8]
In 1979, Hartshorne was awarded theLeroy P. Steele Prize for "his expository research article Equivalence relations on algebraic cycles and subvarieties of small codimension, Proceedings of Symposia in Pure Mathematics, volume 29, American Mathematical Society, 1975, pp. 129-164; and his bookAlgebraic geometry , Springer-Verlag, Berlin and New York, 1977."[ 9] In 2012, Hartshorne became a fellow of theAmerican Mathematical Society .[ 10]
Hartshorne attended high school atPhillips Exeter Academy , graduating in 1955. Hartshorne is married to Edie Churchill and has two sons and an adopted daughter.[ 5] He is a mountain climber and amateur flute andshakuhachi player.[ 5]
