CareerBryant served as the director of the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) from 2007 to 2013.[2] He is known for his work in exterior differential systems, special holonomy, and Finsler geometry. Bryant surfaces, surfaces of unit constant mean curvature in hyperbolic space, are named after him.[3] The Bryant soliton is also named after him.[1] Bryant is on the board of directors of EDGE, a transition program for women entering graduate studies in the mathematical sciences. In 2013 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[4] He is also a member of the National Academy of Sciences. He served as the president of the American Mathematical Society from February 1, 2015 until January 31, 2017.[5][6] Selected publications
Bryant and David Morrison are the editors of vol. 4 of the Selected Works of Phillip Griffiths.
