Audrey Terras
AUDREY TERRAS received her B.S. degree in Mathematics from the University of Maryland, College Park in 1964, where she was inspired by the lectures of Sigekatu Kuroda to become a number theorist. She was particularly impressed by the use of analysis (in particular using zeta functions) to derive algebraic results. She received her M.A. (1966) and Ph.D. (1970) from Yale University.
In 1972 she became an assistant professor of mathematics at the University of California, San Diego. Now she is a full professor at U.C.S.D. where she has had 21 Ph.D. students. She is a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and has served on the Council of the American Mathematical Society.
Her research interests include number theory, harmonic analysis on symmetric spaces and finite groups along with its applications, special functions, algebraic graph theory, especially zeta functions of graphs, and Selberg's trace formula. When lecturing on mathematics she believes it is important to give examples, applications, and colorful pictures.
