Tatjana Stykel is a Russian mathematician who works as a professor of computational mathematics in the Institute of Mathematics of the University of Augsburg in Germany. Her research interests include numerical linear algebra, control theory, and differential-algebraic systems of equations. [1]
Stykel earned bachelor's and master's degrees from Novosibirsk State University in 1994 and 1996. After postgraduate study as a research institute at the Humboldt University of Berlin and Chemnitz University of Technology, she earned a doctorate (Dr. rer. nat.) from Technische Universität Berlin in 2002, and a habilitation from the same university in 2008. [1] Her doctoral dissertation, Analysis and Numerical Solution of Generalized Lyapunov Equation, was supervised by Volker Mehrmann. [2]
After completing her doctorate, she was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Calgary, and then a researcher and guest professor at Technische Universität Berlin from 2003 until 2011, when she took her current position in Augsburg. [1]
In 2003, Stykel was one of the Second Prize winners of the Leslie Fox Prize for Numerical Analysis. [3] She won the Richard von Mises Prize of the Gesellschaft für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik in 2007. [4]
The Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize, or Leibniz Prize, is awarded by the German Research Foundation to "exceptional scientists and academics for their outstanding achievements in the field of research". Since 1986, up to ten prizes have been awarded annually to individuals or research groups working at a research institution in Germany or at a German research institution abroad. It is considered the most important research award in Germany.
Lloyd Nicholas Trefethen is an American mathematician, professor of numerical analysis and head of the Numerical Analysis Group at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford.
Leslie Fox was a British mathematician noted for his contribution to numerical analysis.
The Leslie Fox Prize for Numerical Analysis of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA) is a biennial prize established in 1985 by the IMA in honour of mathematician Leslie Fox (1918-1992). The prize honours "young numerical analysts worldwide", and applicants submit papers for review. A committee reviews the papers, invites shortlisted candidates to give lectures at the Leslie Fox Prize meeting, and then awards First Prize and Second Prizes based on "mathematical and algorithmic brilliance in tandem with presentational skills."
