Robert Horton Cameron (May 17, 1908 – July 17, 1989) was an American mathematician, who worked on analysis and probability theory.
He spent the academic year 1953–1954 on sabbatical leave at the Institute for Advanced Study.
[4] His doctoral students include Monroe D. Donsker and Elizabeth Cuthill.
During the 1940s Cameron and W. T. Martin, who was from 1943 to 1946 the chair of the mathematics department at Syracuse University, engaged in an ambitious program of extending Norbert Wiener's early work on mathematical models of Brownian motion.
[6] In 1944, Cameron was awarded the Chauvenet Prize for '"Some Introductory Exercises in the Manipulation of Fourier Transforms", which appeared in National Mathematics Magazine, 1941, vol.
