Brian White (mathematician)
Brian Cabell White is an American mathematician who specializes in differential geometry and geometric measure theory. He is a professor of mathematics and chairs the mathematics department at Stanford University.〔.〕 He played a key role in the solution of the double bubble conjecture, that the minimum-area enclosure of two volumes is formed from three spherical patches meeting in a circle and forming dihedral angles of 2/3 with each other, by proving that the optimal solution to this problem is necessarily a surface of revolution.〔. Revised version of an article initially appearing in the ''American Mathematical Monthly'' (2001), , .〕
White graduated from Yale University in 1977, as the top student in the sciences at Yale.〔 He earned his Ph.D. from Princeton University in 1982, with a dissertation on minimal surfaces supervised by Frederick J. Almgren, Jr.. After postdoctoral research at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences of New York University, he became a faculty member at Stanford in 1983.〔
He was awarded a Sloan Fellowship in 1985,〔.〕 and a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1999.〔.〕 He was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 2002, speaking in the differential geometry section on the curve-shortening flow and mean curvature flow.〔.〕〔.〕 In 2012 he was selected as one of the inaugural fellows of the American Mathematical Society.〔.〕
