Angela Kunoth (born 22 June 1963)[1] is a German mathematician specializing in the numerical analysis of partial differential equations. She is a professor of mathematics at the University of Cologne,[2] and the editor-in-chief of SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis.[3]

Education and career edit

Kunoth studied mathematics at Bielefeld University beginning in 1982, and earned a diploma there in 1990. After visiting the University of South Carolina as a Fulbright Scholar, she completed a doctorate (Dr. rer. nat.) at the Free University of Berlin in 1994.[4] Her dissertation, Multilevel Preconditioning, was supervised by Wolfgang Dahmen.[5]

After research positions at SINTEF in Norway, at the Weierstrass Institute in Berlin, at Texas A&M University, and at RWTH Aachen University, she became an associate professor at the University of Bonn in 1999, and earned a habilitation through RWTH Aachen in 2000 with the habilitation thesis Wavelet Methods for Minimization Problems Involving Elliptic Partial Differential Equations. She moved to Paderborn University as a full professor and chair of complex systems in 2007, and at Paderborn served as director of the mathematical institute and vice-dean of the faculty for electrotechnics from 2010 to 2012. She moved again to the University of Cologne as professor and chair for applied mathematics in 2013.[4]

Kunoth was elected to the 2023 Class of SIAM Fellows.[6]

Book edit

Kunoth is the author of the monograph Wavelet Methods — Elliptic Boundary Value Problems and Control Problems (Springer, 2001), a book version of her habilitation thesis.[7]
