Congratulations to our group leader Simon Telen on receiving the SIAM Activity Group on Algebraic Geometry Agnes Szanto Early Career Prize.
This prestigious award recognizes his groundbreaking contributions to applied algebraic geometry and computational methods in particle physics, particularly through innovative work on Landau discriminants and their applications.
The official prize ceremony will take place during the SIAM Conference on Applied Geometry in July at the University of Wisconsin, USA.
Awarded every two years, the SIAM Activity Group on Algebraic Geometry Agnes Szanto Early Career Prize honors one exceptional early-career researcher for distinguished contributions to algebraic geometry and its applications, based on papers published in peer-reviewed English-language journals within the three years preceding the award.
SIAM has now published a blog post highlighting his work and career.
Former group leader Angkana Rüland, renowned for her work in applied analysis, is to receive the New Horizons Prize from the Breakthrough Prize Foundation, a $100,000 accolade. Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition!
Leipzig University professor Dejan Gajic has been awarded a €1.5 million ERC Starting Grant for his research on the dynamics of black holes. The grant will boost research at the Center for Mathematical Physics, the joint venture between Leipzig University and MiS.
Sayan Mukherjee is one of 12 top international researchers to receive Germany's most valuable research award, the Alexander von Humboldt Professorship. On the occasion of the award ceremony, we also published an interview with his colleagues from the Learning and Inference Research Group at MiS
