Douglas Bowman

Professor

Education

Ph.D., University of California Los Angeles — Combinatorics and Number Theory

Research

Bowman bridges classical analysis and combinatorics in the study of analytic number theory and special functions. His work centers on continued fractions — their convergence behavior, generalizations with multiple limits and connections to dynamical systems and diophantine approximation — alongside q-series, orthogonal polynomials, multiple polylogarithms and Rogers-Ramanujan identities. He has published in Advances in Mathematics, the Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, Compositio Mathematica and the Ramanujan Journal and has been supported by the NSF.
