Kristin Lauter

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kristin Estella Lauter (born December 8, 1969 in Wisconsin ) is an American mathematician .

Kristin Lauter studied mathematics at the University of Chicago with a bachelor's degree in 1990 and a master's degree in 1991 and received her doctorate there in 1996 under Niels Nygaard (Ray class field constructions of curves over finite fields with many rational points). From 1996 to 1999 she was T. H. Hildebrandt Research Assistant Professor at the University of Michigan . She was also at the Institut de Mathematiques Luminy and the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn . From 2000 she was with Microsoft Research . In 2006 she became Senior Researcher and in 2008 Principal Researcher and Research Manager in the cryptography group. She also teaches at the University of Washington .

She deals with arithmetic geometry with applications in cryptography ( elliptic curve cryptography , homomorphic encryption , supersingular isogeny graphs in cryptography).

From 2015 to 2017 she was President of the Association for Women in Mathematics . She has been a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society since 2015 . In 2018 she became a Polya Lecturer of the Mathematical Association of America .

She holds 30 US patents (2017).
