'''Julia Hall Bowman Robinson''' (December 8, 1919{{spaced ndash}}July 30, 1985) was an American [[mathematician]] noted for her contributions to the fields of [[computability theory]] and [[computational complexity theory]]—most notably in [[decision problem]]s. Her work on [[Hilbert's tenth problem]] (now known as [[Matiyasevich]]'s theorem or the MRDP theorem) played a crucial role in its ultimate resolution. Robinson was a [[MacArthur Fellows Program|1983 MacArthur Fellow]].
