Gregory Arone is a professor of mathematics at Stockholm university. He received his PhD from Brown University, and held positions at the University of Chicago, university of Aberdeen, and the University of Virginia before moving to his current position. He spent a year in Germany as an Alexander von Humboldt fellow and a semester in Finland as a Fulbright fellow. He works in topology, and is interested in the interplay between the algebraic, geometric and categorical aspects of the subject. He has done much research on polynomial functors and their applications. His work appeared in leading mathematical journals, including Acta Mathematica, Inventiones, and Publications of the IHES. He gave numerous series of lectures at workshops and summer schools for PhD students.
