Lynn Batten

Lynn Margaret Batten (1948[1] – 28 July 2022[2][3]) was a Canadian-Australian mathematician[4] known for her books about finite geometry and cryptography, and for her research on the classification of malware.[5]

Education and career

Batten earned her Ph.D. at the University of Waterloo in 1977. Her dissertation was D-Partition Geometries.[6]

Formerly the Associate Dean for Academic and Industrial Research at the University of Manitoba, she moved to Deakin University, Australia in 2000,[2] where she held the Deakin Chair in Mathematics, and directed the Information Security Group.[7]

She was involved in the founding of the Australian Mathematical Sciences Institute (AMSI) from 2001.[2]
