}}Lin Fanghua ({{lang-zh|t=林芳華|p=Lín Fānghuá}}; born 1959), also sometimes written as Fang-Hua Lin, is a Chinese-born American mathematician. He is currently the Silver Professor at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. He applies rigorous analysis to nonlinear systems and is a leader in this field.[1]

Biography

Lin was born in 1959 in Zhenhai, Ningbo, Zhejiang, China, and graduated from the Department of Mathematics of Zhejiang University in 1981. He went to United States to pursue his further study in the Department of Mathematics, University of Minnesota, and obtained his PhD in 1985. From Sept. 1985 to Aug. 1988, he was an instructor at the Courant Institute, New York University.
