Biography:Jennifer Morse (mathematician)
Jennifer Leigh Morse is a mathematician specializing in algebraic combinatorics. She is a professor of mathematics at the University of Virginia.[1]
Research
Morse's interests in algebraic combinatorics include representation theory and applications to statistical physics, symmetric functions, Young tableaux, and [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math]-Schur functions, which are a generalization of Schur polynomials.[2]
Education and career
Morse earned her Ph.D. in 1999 from the University of California, San Diego. Her dissertation, Explicit Expansions for Knop-Sahi and Macdonald Polynomials, was supervised by Adriano Garsia.[3]
She has been a faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania, at the University of Miami, and at Drexel University before moving to the University of Virginia in 2017.[2]
Book
Morse is one of six coauthors of the book [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math]-Schur Functions and Affine Schubert Calculus (Fields Institute Monographs 33, Springer, 2014).[4]
Recognition
Morse was named a Simons Fellow in Mathematics in 2012 and again in 2021.[5] She was elected as a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society in the 2021 class of fellows, "for contributions to algebraic combinatorics and representation theory and service to the mathematical community".[6]
