Katsuhiro Shiohama

Katsuhiro Shiohama ( Japanese 塩 浜 勝 博 , Shiohama Katsuhiro ; born July 2, 1940 in Tokyo Prefecture ) is a Japanese mathematician who studies differential geometry .

Shiohama studied at the Tokyo Institute of Technology with a bachelor's degree in 1964 and a master's degree in 1966 and received his doctorate there in 1973 with Tominosuke Otsuki. From 1967 he was a research assistant and from 1973 an associate professor at the University of Tsukuba, where he became a full professor in 1982. In 1985 he became a professor at Kyushu University and in 1998 at Saga University . In 2006 he retired.
