Dominique Hulin (born 1959)[1] is a French mathematician specializing in differential geometry and known for her textbook on Riemannian geometry.

Hulin studied mathematics at the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris from 1978 to 1983,[2] working there with Marcel Berger and completing her doctorate in 1983 with the dissertation Pinching and Betti numbers.[3] She was an assistant professor at Paris Diderot University from 1983 to 1985, when she became maître de conferences at Paris-Sud University, which later became Paris-Saclay University.[2] In 2019 she was advanced to the exceptional class of maîtres de conferences.[4]

She is the coauthor, with Sylvestre Gallot and Jacques Lafontaine, of the textbook Riemannian Geometry (Universitext, Springer, 1987; 3rd ed., 2004).[5]
