Kathryn Mann is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Cornell University. She completed her Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 2014. Her research focuses on geometric topology, particularly actions of infinite groups on manifolds. She utilizes techniques from geometric topology and geometric group theory, exploring the rigidity of group actions and the underlying geometric topological structure. Mann's work emphasizes the interplay between topology and algebraic structures, particularly in relation to homeomorphism groups of manifolds. Key publications include her studies on surface group representations and automatic continuity in homeomorphism groups. Mann remains engaged in the mathematical community, contributing to significant advancements in understanding the structure and dynamics associated with these topics.
