Cristina Pereyra
María Cristina Pereyra (born 1964)[1] is a Venezuelan mathematician. She is a professor of mathematics and statistics at the University of New Mexico, and the author of several books on wavelets and harmonic analysis.
Education and employment[]
Pereyra was a member of the Venezuelan team for the 1981 and 1982 International Mathematical Olympiads.[2] She earned a licenciado (the equivalent of a bachelor's degree) in mathematics in 1986 from the Central University of Venezuela.[3]
She went to Yale University for graduate studies, completing her Ph.D. there in 1993. Her dissertation, Sobolev Spaces On Lipschitz Curves: Paraproducts, Inverses And Some Related Operators, was supervised by Peter Jones.[3][4] After working for three years as an instructor at Princeton University, she joined the University of New Mexico faculty in 1996.[3]
