David Goss

David Mark Goss (born 1952) is a mathematician, a professor in the department of mathematics at The Ohio State University,^[1] and the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Number Theory.^[2] He received his B.S. in mathematics in 1973 from University of Michigan^[1] and his Ph.D. in 1977 from Harvard University under the supervision of Barry Mazur;^[3] prior to Ohio State he held positions at Princeton University, Harvard, the University of California, Berkeley, and Brandeis University.^[1] He works on function fields and introduced the Goss zeta function.

In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.^[4]
