Hugh Lowell Montgomery (born August 26, 1944) is an American mathematician, working in the fields of analytic number theory and mathematical analysis. As a Marshall scholar, Montgomery earned his Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge. [1] For many years, Montgomery has been teaching at the University of Michigan.

He is best known for Montgomery's pair correlation conjecture, his development of the large sieve methods and for co-authoring (with Ivan M. Niven and Herbert Zuckerman) one of the standard introductory number theory texts, An Introduction to the Theory of Numbers, now in its fifth edition ( ISBN  0471625469).

In 1974, Montgomery was an invited speaker of the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) in Vancouver. [2] In 2012, he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society. [3]
