Steven Joel Miller is a mathematician who specializes in analytic number theory and has also worked in applied fields such as sabermetrics and linear programming.[1] He is a co-author, with Ramin Takloo-Bighash, of An Invitation to Modern Number Theory (Princeton University Press, 2006), with Midge Cozzens of The Mathematics of Encryption: An Elementary Introduction (AMS Mathematical World series 29, Providence, RI, 2013), and with Stephan Ramon Garcia of ``100 Years of Math Milestones: The Pi Mu Epsilon Centennial Collection (American Mathematical Society, 2019). He also edited Theory and Applications of Benford's Law (Princeton University Press, 2015) and wrote The Mathematics of Optimization: How to do things faster (AMS Pure and Applied Undergraduate Texts Volume: 30; 2017) and ``The Probability Lifesaver: All the Tools You Need to Understand Chance (Princeton University Press, 2017). He has written over 100 papers in topics including accounting, Benford's law, computer science, economics, marketing, mathematics, physics, probability, sabermetrics, and statistics, available on the arXiv and his homepage.
