Biography

    • Ken Ono (born 1968) is an American mathematician who specializes in number theory, especially in integer partitions, modular forms, and the fields of interest to Srinivasa Ramanujan. He is the Thomas Jefferson Professor of Mathematics at the University of Virginia. His work in film largely stems from his role as a founding board member of the Infinity Arts Foundation.

      Ono's contributions include several monographs and over 200 research and popular articles in number theory, combinatorics, and algebra. He is considered to be an expert in the theory of integer partitions and modular forms. In 2000 he 'greatly' expanded Ramanujan's theory of partition congruences, and in 2012 he made world news for his work proving the last open conjectures contained in Ramanujan's enigmatic death-bed letter to G. H. Hardy.
