Gail Susan Nelson is a mathematician who works as a professor of mathematics at Carleton College.[1]
Education and career
Nelson did her undergraduate studies at the University of North Dakota.[1] She completed her Ph.D. in 1988 at the University of Minnesota. Her dissertation concerned partial differential equations, and was supervised by Eugene Barry Fabes; it was Bounds for the Fundamental Solutions of Degenerate Parabolic Partial Differential Equations.[2] She joined the Carleton College faculty in the same year.[1]
Books
Nelson is the author of two textbooks in mathematics:
- Recurrence and Topology (with John M. Alongi, Graduate Studies in Mathematics 85, American Mathematical Society, 2007), on dynamical systems.[3]
- A User-Friendly Introduction to Lebesgue Measure and Integration (Student Mathematical Library 78, American Mathematical Society, 2015), on Lebesgue integration.[4]
She is also the editor-in-chief of the "Problem Books" book series of the Mathematical Association of America.[5]
