Jane Piore Gilman is an American mathematician, a distinguished professor of mathematics at Rutgers University.[1] Her research concerns topology and group theory.
Gilman is one of three children of physicist Emanuel R. Piore.[2] She did her undergraduate studies at the University of Chicago, graduating in 1965,[1] and received her Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1971. Her thesis, supervised by Lipman Bers, was entitled Relative Modular Groups in Teichmüller Spaces.[3] She worked for a year as an instructor at Stony Brook University before joining Rutgers in 1972.[1] In 2014 she was elected as a fellow of the American Mathematical Society "for contributions to topology and group theory, and for service to her department and the larger community."[4]
