Wenxian Shen is a Chinese-American mathematician known for her work in topological dynamics, almost-periodicity, waves and other spatial patterns in dynamical systems. She is Don Logan Chair of Mathematics at Auburn University.
Education
Shen graduated from Zhejiang Normal University in 1982, and earned a master's degree at Peking University in 1987. She completed a Ph.D. in mathematics at the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1992, with the dissertation Stability and Bifurcation of Traveling Wave Solutions supervised by Shui-Nee Chow.
Books
Shen is the coauthor of two monographs, Almost Automorphic and Almost Periodic Dynamics in Skew-Product Semiflows (with Yingfei Yi, American Mathematical Society, 1998), and Spectral Theory for Random and Nonautonomous Parabolic Equations and Applications (with Janusz Mierczyński, CRC Press, 2008).
