Wilhelm Winter (born 1968) is a German mathematician, specializing in operator algebras (and particularly C*-algebras).
Winter received in 1996 his Diplom from the Heidelberg University and in 2000 his doctorate (Promotion) from the University of Münster with thesis advisor Joachim Cuntz and thesis Covering Dimension for Nuclear C*-Algebras.
In Fall 2002 he was a visiting assistant professor at Texas A & M University.
[2] In 2010 he received with Andrew Toms the G. de B. Robinson Award.
[3] In 2018 Winter was an invited speaker with talk Structure of nuclear C*-algebras: From quasidiagonality to classification, and back again at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Rio de Janeiro.
