From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ilaria Perugia (born 1969) is an Italian applied mathematician and numerical analyst whose research concerns numerical methods for partial differential equations, especially Galerkin methods. She works at the University of Vienna in Austria as Professor of the Numerics of Partial Differential Equations.[1]
Perugia was born on 23 October 1969 in Milan. She studied mathematics at the University of Pavia, working there with Gianni Arrigo Pozzi and Franco Brezzi. She earned a laurea in 1993,[1] winning the university's triennial Berzolari Prize for best laurea thesis.[2]
Next, she moved to the University of Milan for graduate study in computational mathematics and operations research, completing her Ph.D. in 1998.[1] Her doctoral dissertation, Discretization of Linearly Constrained Problems And Applications In Scientific Computing, was again supervised by Brezzi.[1][3]
