Anne Kirsten Eisenträger is a professor of mathematics at The Pennsylvania State University, known for her research on computational number theory, Hilbert's tenth problem, and applications in cryptography.
Eisenträger earned a Vordiplom in mathematics in 1996 from the University of Tübingen and a Master's degree (1998) and a Ph.D. (2003) from the University of California, Berkeley;[1] her dissertation, titled Hilbert’s Tenth Problem and Arithmetic Geometry, was supervised by Bjorn Poonen.
[1][2] After temporary positions at the Institute for Advanced Study and the University of Michigan, she joined the Pennsylvania State University faculty in 2007.
[1] Eisenträger appears in George Csicsery's documentary film Julia Robinson and Hilbert's Tenth Problem (2008).
[3] In 2017, she became a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society "for contributions to computational number theory and number-theoretic undecidability".
