David Arends Gieseker (born 23 November 1943 in
Oakland, California) is an American mathematician, specializing in algebraic geometry.
Gieseker received his bachelor's degree in 1965 from
Reed College and his master's degree from
Harvard University in 1967. In 1970 he received his Ph.D. under
Robin Hartshorne with thesis ''Contributions to the Theory of Positive Embeddings in Algebraic Geometry''.
Gieseker became a professor at the
University of California, Los Angeles in 1975 and became professor emeritus in 2022.
The topics of his research include
geometric invariant theory and moduli of
vector bundles over
algebraic curves.
