Nancy Hingston
Nancy Burgess Hingston is an American mathematician.
Hingston studied mathematics and physics at the University of Pennsylvania with a bachelor's degree in both subjects and received his doctorate from Harvard University with Raoul Bott in 1981 (Equivariant Morse theory and closed geodesics). She has taught at the University of Pennsylvania and is a professor at The College of New Jersey . She was also a visiting scholar at the Institute for Advanced Study (1985/86, 1998/99, 2005/06, 2011/13).
She deals with differential geometry using methods of algebraic topology and functional analysis.
In 2014, Hingston was invited to speak at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Seoul (Loop products, Poincare duality, index growth and dynamics). She is a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society (2017).
Hingston has been married to a lawyer since 1981 and has three children. As a hobby she plays the cello.
