Hilary Priestley


Hilary Priestley is a mathematician. She is a professor at the University of Oxford and a Fellow of St Anne's College, Oxford, where she has been Tutor in Mathematics since 1972.

Contents

Priestley introduced ordered separable topological spaces that are important in the study of distributive lattices; such topological spaces are now usually called Priestley spaces in her honour. She has also contributed to the representation theory of distributive lattices.
