Joseph Lipman
Joseph Lipman (born June 15, 1938 in Toronto ) is a Canadian - American mathematician who studies algebraic geometry.
Lipman studied at the University of Toronto with a bachelor's degree in 1960 and at Harvard University , where he received his master's degree in 1961 and his doctorate under Oscar Zariski in 1965 (quasi-ordinary singularities of embedded surfaces). In 1965 he became an assistant professor at Queen's University in Kingston and in 1966 at Purdue University , where he became a professor in 1971. From 1987 to 1992 he headed the mathematics faculty there.
He was a member of the MSRI and visiting scholar at the University of Cambridge and the University of Nice and visiting professor at Columbia University and Harvard University. He deals with singularity theory.
In 1982 he received the Jeffery Williams Prize . He is a fellow of the American Mathematical Society .
He is a US citizen. Lipman has been married since 1962 and has two children.
