Robert Leamon Bryant (born August 30, 1953) is an American mathematician and Phillip Griffiths Professor of Mathematics at Duke University.〔http://fds.duke.edu/db/aas/math/faculty/bryant〕 He specializes in differential geometry. As of 2007, he has served as the chairman of the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Biography: Robert Bryant )〕 He is known for his work in exterior differential systems, special holonomy, and Finsler geometry. Bryant surfaces, surfaces of unit constant mean curvature in hyperbolic space, are named after him.〔.〕 The Bryant soliton is also named after him.〔 In 2013 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.〔(List of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society ), retrieved 2012-11-10.〕 He is also a member of the National Academy of Sciences. On February 1, 2015, he began his two-year term as president of the American Mathematical Society.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bryant Begins Term as AMS President )〕〔(Robert L.
