Michael T. Anderson (born November 18, 1950, in Boulder, Colorado)[1] is an American mathematician. He is a professor of mathematics at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.[2] His research concerns differential geometry including Ricci curvature and minimal surfaces.
After doing his undergraduate studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara,[1] Anderson received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley in 1981 under the supervision of H. Blaine Lawson.[3]
In 2012, Anderson became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[4]
