Klaus Hulek (born 19 August 1952 in Hindelang) is a German mathematician, known for his work in algebraic geometry and in particular, his work on moduli spaces.[1]

Life

Klaus Hulek studied Mathematics from 1971 at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich graduating in 1976 with his Diplom.[2] In 1974/75 he studied at Brasenose College of the University of Oxford, where he obtained a master's degree.[3]

He obtained his doctorate under the supervision of Wolf Barth at the University of Erlangen–Nuremberg in 1979. His thesis was "Stable rank 2 vector bundles on with odd first Chern class".[4] In 1982/83 he held a post-doctorate position at Brown University and after that he returned to Erlangen as a research scientist, where he completed his habilitation in 1984, gaining the title Privatdozent.[5]

From 1985, Hulek was a professor at the University of Bayreuth, and in 1990 he moved to Leibniz University Hannover, where he was also vice-president for research from 2005 to January 2015.[6]

Hulek is an editor of the journal Mathematische Nachrichten.[1] Since 2016 he has been editor in chief of zbMATH (formerly Zentralblatt für Mathematik). Hulek was vice president of the German Mathematical Society (DMV) from January 2019 to May 2020.[6]
