Hausdorff Memorial Prize awarded to Meike Neuwohner and Radu Toma
As every year, the Department of Mathematics awards the Hausdorff Memorial Prize to the best dissertation in mathematics. As there were two outstanding nominations from very different mathematics disciplines this year, the jury decided to award the Hausdorff Memorial Prize for the academic year 2023/2024 twice: to Meike Neuwohner and Radu Toma. Herbert Koch, Chairman of the Department of Mathematics, presented the award on January 15.
Hausdorff Chair
We look forward to filling one Hausdorff Chair which corresponds to full professorship with tenure. The position will be devoted to Theoretical Mathematics.
Sara Vera Hahner and Rebecca Maria Siebert receive the Ada Lovelace Prize
Sara Vera Hahner was honored for her PhD thesis (supervisor: Jochen Garcke), Rebecca Maria Siebert for her bachelor thesis (supervisor: Jürgen Dölz). This is Vera Hahner's second Ada Lovelace Prize.
Angkana Rüland receives Leibniz Prize
In recognition of her excellent research, Angkana Rüland receives the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize, which is endowed with 2.5 million euros. The German Research Foundation (DFG) announced this today. The researcher from the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics (HCM) at the University of Bonn is honored with the award for her outstanding work. The mathematician at the Cluster of Excellence HCM is being recognized for her outstanding work in mathematical analysis, particularly on models for microstructures in phase transitions in solids and inverse problems with non-local operators. The highly endowed prize permits a large degree of freedom in research.
