Nicholas William Hanges was a mathematician at the City University of New York, known for his work in partial differential equations and the theory of several complex variables. He was a Professor of Mathematics at Lehman College.

Education and career[edit]

Hanges earned his B.S degree in mathematics from the New York City College in 1970. He received his M.A. (1975) and Ph.D. (1976) from Purdue University,[2][3][4] under the supervision of M. Salah Baouendi. He was a visiting scholar at the Institute for Advanced Study in 1977-1978, 1980-1981, 1991-1992 and again in 1994.[3] In 1983, Hanges joined the faculty of Lehman College, City University of New York as a Professor of Mathematics from the University of Pittsburgh. From 2017 he served as Chairman of the Mathematics Department.[5]
