Daniel Stern is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Cornell University. He obtained his Ph.D. from Princeton University in 2019. His research focuses on Differential Geometry, Partial Differential Equations, and Calculus of Variations, with a strong emphasis on geometric analysis, which involves the study of geometric partial differential equations and variational problems. His work applies local analytical techniques and global variational methods to explore solutions of partial differential equations associated with minimal submanifolds, harmonic maps, gauge theory, and geometric measure theory. He is particularly interested in the applications of these fields to scalar curvature and spectral theory. His notable publications include works on harmonic maps, energy quantization in higher dimensions, and the geometry of minimal surfaces. Through his teaching, he conducts courses such as Partial Differential Equations and contributes to furthering understanding in mathematics through both instruction and research.
