Rodolfo Humberto Torres is an Argentinian American mathematician specializing in harmonic analysis who works as the Vice Chancellor for Research and Economic Development and a Distinguished Professor of Mathematics at the University of California, Riverside.

Torres did his undergraduate studies at the National University of Rosario in Argentina, completing a licenciatura there in 1984.[1][2] He earned his doctorate in 1989 from Washington University in St. Louis, with a dissertation entitled On the Boundedness of Certain Operators with Singular Kernels on Distribution Spaces and supervised by Björn D. Jawerth.[2][3] In 2012 he became one of the inaugural fellows of the American Mathematical Society.[1][4] He was named a Distinguished Professor in 2016.[1][2]

As well as his work in pure mathematics, Torres has also published works on light scattering mechanisms for the colorings of birds and insects.[1]
