Kevin Ford (mathematician)

Kevin B. Ford (born 22 December 1967) is an American mathematician working in analytic number theory.

He then attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he completed his doctoral studies in 1994 under the supervision of Heini Halberstam.

Ford's early work focused on the distribution of Euler's totient function.

[3] In August 2014, Kevin Ford, in collaboration with Green, Konyagin and Tao,[4] resolved a longstanding conjecture of Erdős on large gaps between primes, also proven independently by James Maynard.

[7] He is one of the namesakes of the Erdős–Tenenbaum–Ford constant,[8] named for his work using it in estimating the number of small integers that have divisors in a given interval.
