Joe Buhler
Joe Peter Buhler (* 1950 in Vancouver (Washington) ) is an American mathematician.
Buhler received his bachelor's degree from Reed College in 1972 and received his doctorate in 1977 with John T. Tate at Harvard University (Icosahedral Galois Representations). He was professor at Reed College in Portland (Oregon) from 1980 until his retirement in 2005 .
In 1997 he introduced the concept of the Essential Dimension with Zinovy Reichstein .
He is involved in a project to numerically verify the conjecture of Harry Vandiver and Ernst Eduard Kummer about the class number of circular dividers. Vandiver proved it with a desk calculator up to 600, Derrick Henry Lehmer at the end of the 1940s up to around 5000 and Buhler with colleagues in 2001 up to 12 million. He continues the project with David Harvey and others.
He deals with algorithmic algebraic number theory, algebra and cryptography .
He is a fellow of the American Mathematical Society .
