M. Lawrence "Larry" Glasser (born October 5, 1933 in Crookston, MN) is a professor emeritus of physics at Clarkson University. He received his B.A. from the University of Chicago and his M.S. from the University of Wisconsin (Madison), both in mathematics, and his Ph.D. in physics from Carnegie Mellon University (then Carnegie Institute of Technology) in Pittsburgh, PA, in 1962. Glasser married Judith Sensibar (1936–2015) on August 22, 1956, and together they raised four children.
Glasser worked as a research scientist from 1962 to 1974 for Battelle Institute in Columbus, Ohio. He then worked as a professor of physics and mathematics at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, before joining the faculty at Clarkson University (Potsdam, NY) as a professor of physics, mathematics, and computer science, with interests in theoretical solid state physics, semiconductor nanostructures, and applied mathematics. Glasser retired from and was awarded emeritus status at Clarkson in 2008.
Beginning in 1996, Glasser began spending winters as a visiting professor and advisor at the Universidad de Valladolid in Spain. His relationship with the university continued until 2020.
With nearly 100 co-authors, including Norman March, Freeman Dyson, and Jon Borwwein, Glasser has published over 400 research papers and three books in physics and mathematics. His Erdos number is 2. His eponymous results include Glasser’s Master Theorem, the Glasser Transform, the Glasser function, the Glasser-Lehman Theorem, the Onsager-Glasser Theorem and the Kaplan-Glasser State.[1]
