Joseph Steenbrink
Joseph Steenbrink (* 1947 ) is a Dutch mathematician who deals with algebraic geometry.
Steenbrink received his PhD in 1974 from the University of Amsterdam under Frans Oort (Limits of Hodge Structures and Intermediate Jacobeans). Until his retirement he was a professor at the Radboud University Nijmegen . After his retirement he accepted a substitute professorship for mathematics didactics at the University of Cologne.
He deals with singularity theory (including three-dimensional Calabi-Yau varieties), mixed Hodge structures (after Pierre Deligne ), and variations of Hodge structures (after Phillip Griffiths ).
He was invited speaker at the 1990 International Congress of Mathematicians in Kyoto ( Applications of Hodge Theory to Singularities ).
Aise Johan de Jong is one of his PhD students .
