Coralia Cartis is a Romanian mathematician at the University of Oxford whose research interests include compressed sensing, numerical analysis, and regularisation methods in mathematical optimization. At Oxford, she is a Professor in Numerical Optimization in the Mathematical Institute, and a tutorial fellow of Balliol College. ^[1]

Education and career

Born in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, ^[2] Cartis earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Babeș-Bolyai University, ^[3] and completed her PhD in 2005 at the University of Cambridge. Her dissertation, On Interior Point Methods for Linear Programming, was supervised by Michael J. D. Powell. ^[4] In the same year, she was one of the Second Prize winners of the Leslie Fox Prize for Numerical Analysis. ^[5]

After working as a researcher at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and a postdoctoral researcher at Oxford, she became a lecturer at the University of Edinburgh in 2007. She took her present position at Oxford in 2013. ^[3]

In 2018 she became a member of the scientific board of the Smith Institute for Industrial Mathematics and System Engineering, ^[6] and was a plenary speaker at the 16th EUROPT Workshop on Advances in Continuous Optimization in Spain. ^[7]

Cartis was elected to the 2023 Class of SIAM Fellows. ^[8]
