Christopher J. Bishop
Christopher Bishop is an American mathematician on the faculty at
Cambridge University, receiving at Cambridge a Certificate of Advanced Study in mathematics, before entering the University of Chicago in 1983 for his doctoral studies in mathematics. As a graduate student in Chicago, his advisor, Peter Jones,[1] took a position at Yale University, causing Bishop to spend the years 1985–87 at Yale as a visiting graduate student and programmer. Nonetheless, he received his PhD from the University of Chicago in 1987.[2]
Career
Upon receiving his PhD, Bishop went to
UCLA from 1988–91. In 1992 he joined, and remains on, the faculty of Stony Brook University, attaining full professor there in 1997.[2]
Research
Bishop is known for his contributions to geometric function theory,[3][4][5][6] Kleinian groups,[7][8][9][10][11] complex dynamics,[12][13] and computational geometry;[14][15] and in particular for topics such as fractals, harmonic measure, conformal and quasiconformal mappings and Julia sets. Along with Peter Jones, he is the namesake of the class of Bishop-Jones curves.[16]
Awards and honors
Bishop was awarded the 1992 A. P.
Annales Academiae Scientiarum Fennicae Mathematica as of July 1, 2021.[21] In November 2021 he was appointed a Distinguished Professor at the State University of New York.[22]
