William Ma, professor of mathematics at Pennsylvania College of Technology, wrote a paper that was published recently in the book "Quasiconformal Mappings and their Applications."
The book contains 13 main lectures from the International Workshop on Quasiconformal Mappings and their Applications, held Dec. 27, 2005, to Jan. 1, 2006, at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai, India.
Ma's paper, "Geometric properties of hyperbolic geodesics," is based on his lecture at the workshop, which brought together internationally well-known experts to deliver lectures for an audience of mathematicians ranging from graduate students to prominent experts from all the participating countries.
The book is edited by S. Ponnusamy, T. Sugawa and M. Vuorinen and is published by Narosa Publishing House, New Delhi, India.
Ma earned a doctorate in mathematics from the University of Cincinnati. His research focuses on complex analysis.
