Georg Hein

Prof. Dr. Georg Hein is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Duisburg-Essen, Campus Essen. His office is located at WSC-O-3.58, Thea-Leymann-Str. 9, 45117 Essen, with office hours held every Tuesday from 2-3 PM and by appointment. He serves as Director of the Research Group Hein, focusing on Algebraic Geometry.

His research centers on Algebraic Geometry with specific expertise in vector bundles, moduli spaces, elliptic surfaces, and sheaf theory. Hein's work demonstrates deep engagement with stability conditions, Fourier-Mukai transforms, and geometric invariant theory. His publications reveal a consistent focus on foundational structures in algebraic geometry, particularly through the lens of vector bundles on curves and surfaces.

Analysis of his 15 most recent publications (2017-2007) shows a strong thematic continuity in moduli space theory and vector bundle classification. His work bridges abstract algebraic constructions with computational approaches, as evidenced by algorithmic developments for elliptic surfaces and lattice-theoretic investigations. The publications collectively emphasize stability criteria across diverse geometric contexts.

Hein actively supervises PhD students including Asbjørn Michelsen, with former advisees Quyet Thang Truong and Dr. Dario Weißmann. He contributes to academic outreach through the Essen Math Circle for students, organizing weekly sessions for grades 5-13 covering advanced mathematical topics beyond standard curricula. His teaching portfolio includes courses such as Mathematische Miniaturen and Topologie.
