Nancy Stanton

Stanton studied at Stanford University (Bachelor in 1969) and received his doctorate in 1973 from Isadore Singer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( Holomorphic R-Torsion for Lie groups ). She then taught at MIT, the University of California, Berkeley, and as an assistant professor at Columbia University before moving to the University of Notre Dame in 1981 , where she is a professor. She was at the Institute for Advanced Study (1979/80), at IHES and visiting professor at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn and at the University of Michigan .

Stanton deals with function theory of several complex variables (especially geometric relationships), differential geometry and partial differential equations. Among other things, she worked on the spectral geometry of complex manifolds with boundaries and CR manifolds.

In 1981 she was a Sloan Research Fellow . She is a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society .
