From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Angkana Rüland (born 1987) is a German applied mathematician, a professor in mathematics and holder of a Hausdorff Chair in mathematics at the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics of the University of Bonn. Her research has included work on the mathematical modeling of shape-memory alloys and on the inverse problems arising in animal echolocation.[1]
Rüland was born in 1987 in Chiang Mai, but is a German citizen.[2] She grew up in Bonn and was a mathematics student at the University of Bonn.[1] She completed her doctorate in 2014 with the dissertation On Some Rigidity Properties in PDEs supervised by Herbert Koch.[3][2]
After postdoctoral research at the University of Oxford,[1] working there with John M. Ball,[4] she became a researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences in 2017. She took a professorship at Heidelberg University in 2020 before returning to the University of Bonn in 2023.[1]
