Richard Ehrenborg is a Swedish mathematician working in algebraic combinatorics.[1] He is known for developing the quasisymmetric function of a poset.[2] He currently holds the Ralph E. and Norma L. Edwards Research Professorship at the University of Kentucky [3] and is the first recipient of the Royster Research Professor at University of Kentucky.[4]

Ehrenborg earned his Ph.D. from MIT in 1993[5] under the supervision of Gian-Carlo Rota. He is a descendant of another Richard Ehrenborg [sv],[3] (born 1655) who was a professor and Rektor of Lund University. He is also a juggler and magician.[6]
