Benjamin Schlein (born 28 May 1975 in Lugano, Switzerland) is a Swiss mathematician and professor at the University of Zurich. Schlein's research is mathematical physics. He works in mathematical analysis of many-body quantum systems and random matrix theory.
Schlein studied theoretical physics at ETH Zurich and received his PhD in 2002 under the supervision of Jürg Fröhlich. [1] From 2004 to 2005 he was an NSF Postdoctoral Fellow at Stanford University and from 2005 to 2006 at Harvard University. From 2006 to 2007 he was an assistant professor at University of California, Davis. From 2007 to 2010 he was a lecturer at Cambridge University. [2] From 2010 to 2014 he was a Hausdorff Chair at the University of Bonn in Germany. [3] [4] He has been a professor at the University of Zurich since 2014. [3] [5]
He was one of the four editors-in-chief of the Journal of Functional Analysis in 2022–24. [6]
In 2006, Schlein received the Sofja Kovalevskaja Award from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation [7] In 2018, Schlein was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians. [8]
Juliusz Paweł Schauder was a Polish mathematician known for his work in functional analysis, partial differential equations and mathematical physics.
Michael (Mike) Charles Reed is an American mathematician known for his contributions to mathematical physics and mathematical biology.
The Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany bestows the Sofia Kovalevskaya Award every two years. Sofia Kovalevskaya (1850–1891) was the first major Russian female mathematician, who made important contributions to mathematical analysis, differential equations and mechanics, and the first woman appointed to a full professorship in Northern Europe. This prestigious award named in her honor is given to promising young academics to pursue their line of research in the sciences or arts and humanities. The foundation encourages applications from all areas of the academy so long as the investigator received a Ph.D. in the last six years and may be categorized as "top flight" by their publications and experience as commensurate with age.
Sir Martin Hairer is an Austrian-British mathematician working in the field of stochastic analysis, in particular stochastic partial differential equations. He is Professor of Mathematics at EPFL and at Imperial College London. He previously held appointments at the University of Warwick and the Courant Institute of New York University. In 2014 he was awarded the Fields Medal, one of the highest honours a mathematician can achieve. In 2020 he won the 2021 Breakthrough Prize in Mathematics.
Sergio Albeverio is a Swiss mathematician and mathematical physicist working in numerous fields of mathematics and its applications. In particular he is known for his work in probability theory, analysis, mathematical physics, and in the areas algebra, geometry, number theory, as well as in applications, from natural to social-economic sciences.
