On 25 September, Professor Svitlana Mayboroda gave her inaugural lecture entitled: "The hidden structure of the disorder: seeing complex geometry through the goggles of waves and minimizers". She has been a full professor in the Department since 1 August 2023.
The mathematical concepts that Svitlana Mayboroda develops can be used for all kinds of different applications – from studying the formation of stars to creating new semiconductors that save energy. For Mayboroda herself, however, the focus is on proving mathematical theorems with the aim of expanding our knowledge.
Yuansi Chen joined the Department of Mathematics as an associate professor of statistics at the beginning of this year. His research interests are centred around problems in Bayesian statistics and machine learning, but cross disciplinary boundaries – a theme that is also reflected in his teaching.
Philippe von Wurstemberger successfully passed his oral doctoral thesis examination entitled: "Overcoming the curse of dimensionality for PDEs: from conventional numerics and nonlinear Monte Carlo to deep learning". Congratulations!
We are delighted to announce that Professor Svitlana Mayboroda has been elected as a fellow of the Mathematics Division of the European Academy of Sciences.
