Abstract
In this explanatory work, we make an attempt to briefly discuss the work and technical achievements of twenty female mathematicians. The work may be useful as a historical resource, but there is very little biography or history, and the primary focus is on the mathematics. In fact, the main use will probably be for a student who is coming to a new area of mathematics for the first time and needs an overview of some of the key results and references viewed through the work of one of that area's main contributors. The work of the following mathematicians is discussed: Sofia Kovalevskaya, Emmy Noether, Mary Cartwright, Julia Robinson, Olga Ladyzhenska, Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat, Olga Oleinik, Charlotte Fischer, Karen Uhlenbeck, Krystyna Kuperberg, Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann, Dusa McDuff, Karen Vogtmann, Carolyn Gordon, Frances Kirwan, Leila Schneps, Claire Voisin, Olga Holtz, Maryam Mirzakhani…
