Georg Glaeser (born August 1, 1955 in St. Johann im Pongau, Austria)[1] is an Austrian mathematician, a professor for mathemathics and geometry at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. He is known for his books on computer graphics and biology in relation to mathematics and geometry.
Biography
Glaeser was born August 1, 1955 in St. Johann im Pongau as the fourth of five children. His parents were Othmar and Ida Glaeser.
He studied mathemathics and geometry at the TU Wien from 1973 to 1978 from where he also received his doctor's degree in 1980,[2] advised by Walter Wunderlich.[3] After working as a teacher for mathematics and geometry at a higher technical school, he returned to university. He was visiting professor at Princeton University from 1986 to 1987 where he worked with Steve M. Slaby.[4] In 1998 Glaeser obtained his habilitation in computer graphics at the TU Wien and became a full professor at the University of Applied Arts Vienna.
Glaeser is married and has a daughter.
Research interests
Glaeser has written numerous books on computer geometry/computer graphics, mathematics, geometry, photography, and evolutionary biology. He is interested in the application of geometry to real world problems, always trying to find simple explanations in order to make geometry and phenomena in nature accessible and understandable to everybody. One of his research interests is the intersection of mathematics and biology.
