ROBERT M STRAIN III

Welcome to my home page!

I am currently a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Princeton (2008-2009).

(I am on leave from a Tenure-Track Assistant Professorship in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Pennsylvania.)

During Fall 2008 - Spring 2009, I am organizing the Math Departments Analysis Seminar.

During Spring 2009, I am the course head for MAT 204. Course Web Page (requires Princeton Blackboard access)

During Fall 2008, I taught (two sections of) MAT 103. Course Web Page (requires Princeton Blackboard access)

SEMINAR LINKS: Princeton Seminars. Princeton Analysis. Penn Analysis. Penn Math Calendar. IAS. CIMS.

Here is a PDF file of my Curriculum Vitae (August 2008).

My old webpage has more info (while it lasts): http://www.math.harvard.edu/~strain/.
