Scholar-generated biography
Benedict H. Gross is a Leverett Professor of Mathematics at Harvard University, specializing in number theory and representation theory. His research focuses on the interplay between algebraic number theory, modular forms, and arithmetic geometry. He has made significant contributions to the study of Heegner points, L-series, and their derivatives, as well as the arithmetic of elliptic curves and modular forms. His work often bridges algebraic and analytic methods, with applications to Galois representations and the Langlands program. Gross has published extensively on topics such as singular moduli, p-adic L-functions, and the decomposition of representations of classical groups.
