David Goss

David Mark Goss (April 20, 1952 – April 4, 2017^[1]) was a mathematician, a professor in the department of mathematics at Ohio State University,^[2] and the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Number Theory.^[3] He received his B.S. in mathematics in 1973 from University of Michigan^[2] and his Ph.D. in 1977 from Harvard University under the supervision of Barry Mazur;^[4] prior to Ohio State he held positions at Princeton University, Harvard, the University of California, Berkeley, and Brandeis University.^[2] He worked on function fields and introduced the Goss zeta function.

In 2012, he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.^[5]
