About the Editors

Phillip A. Griffiths received his Ph.D. from Princeton University in 1962. Following a post-doctoral fellowship at the University of California at Berkeley, he returned to Princeton as a professor of mathematics. In 1972, he moved to Harvard University. Then, in 1983, he assumed the position of provost at Duke University, which he held until 1991 when he became Director of the Institute for Advanced Study. His interests are in algebraic and differential geometry; he has been the recipient of several awards, including the Leroy Steele Prize of the American Mathematical Society.

John N. Mather received his Ph.D. from Princeton University and has been on the faculty of Princeton University since 1974. Prior to that he was at Harvard University. He is the recipient of Sloan and Guggenheim Fellowships and has received the John J. Carty Medal of the National Academy of Sciences. He has published papers on singularities of mappings and foliations and his current research interests center around dynamics of Hamiltonian systems.

Elias M. Stein received his PH.D. from the University of Chicago and has been on the faculty of Princeton University since 1963. Prior to that he was on the faculty at MIT and the University of Chicago. He is the recipient of Sloan and Guggenheim Fellowships and has been awarded the Wolf Prize (1999), the von Humboldt Award (1989-1990), and the Schock Prize (1993).
