Sigmundur Gudmundsson (born 1960) is an Icelandic-Swedish mathematician working at Lund University[1] in the fields of differential geometry and global analysis. He is mainly interested in the geometric aspects of harmonic maps and their derivatives, such as harmonic morphisms and p-harmonic functions. His work is partially devoted to the existence theory of complex-valued harmonic morphisms and p-harmonic functions from Riemannian homogeneous spaces of various types, such as symmetric spaces and semisimple, solvable and nilpotent Lie groups. [2] [3]
Gudmundsson earned his Ph.D. from the University of Leeds in 1992, under the supervision of John C. Wood.[4]
Gudmundsson is the founder of the website Nordic-Math-Job advertising vacant academic positions in the Nordic university departments of Mathematics and Statistics. This started off in 1997 as a one-man show, but is now supported by the mathematical societies in the Nordic countries and the National Committee for Mathematics of The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.[5]
