Lista de mulheres matemáticas

Esta é uma lista de Mulheres Matemáticas notáveis. Muitas contribuíram significativamente para a matemática.

A maior parte dos matemáticos mais conhecidos são homens, e as mulheres começaram a se envolver com matemática principalmente desde a Segunda Guerra Mundial. As mulheres formam um grupo significativo de personalidades notáveis na matemática e áreas científicas afins, como a física. Diversos prêmios instituídos pela American Mathematical Society (AMS) e outras sociedades de matemática são destinados a melhorar a situação e reconhecimento das mulheres matemáticas de destaque.

O MacTutor History of Mathematics archive mantém uma relação atualizada de mulheres matemáticas.^[1]
