Duco van Straten

Prof. Dr. Duco van Straten is a faculty member at the Institute of Mathematics within the Faculty of Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. His research focuses on algebraic geometry, differential equations, and number theory, with significant involvement in the Euler Circle Mainz project translating Leonhard Euler's works. He teaches advanced courses such as Differential Galois Theory, Algebraic Surfaces, and Homological Algebra, and has organized workshops like "Calabi-Yau Motives" (2019).

• Current courses include Algebra I – Fields, Rings and Modules, Galois Theory and Elementary Mathematics – ELMA.
• Past courses span topics like Topology II (SS2018) and Plane Algebraic Curves (SS2016, SS2018).

His work bridges classical analysis with modern applications, particularly through Euler's writings. Contact details: Room 04-233, email straten@mathematik.uni-mainz.de, and consultation by appointment via secretariat ebonmann@uni-mainz.de.
