Christiane Tretter (born 28 December 1964)[1] is a German mathematician and mathematical physicist who works as a professor in the Mathematical Institute (MAI) of the University of Bern in Switzerland, and as managing director of the institute.[2] Her research interests include differential operators and spectral theory.

Education and career

[edit]

Tretter studied mathematics, with a minor in physics, at the University of Regensburg, earning a diploma in 1989, a Ph.D. in 1992, and a habilitation in 1998.[1] Her doctoral dissertation, Asymptotische Randbedingungen für Entwicklungssätze bei Randeigenwertproblemen zu mit -abhängigen Randbedingungen, was supervised by Reinhard Mennicken.[3]

She became a lecturer at the University of Leicester in 2000, moved to the University of Bremen as a professor in 2002, and took her present position in Bern in 2006.[1]

Since 2008 she has been editor-in-chief of the journal Integral Equations and Operator Theory.[1]

Books

[edit]

Tretter is the author of two mathematical monographs, Spectral Theory of Block Operator Matrices and Applications (2008)[4] and On Lambda-Nonlinear-Boundary-Eigenvalue-Problems (1993),[5] and of two textbooks in mathematical analysis.

Recognition

[edit]

Tretter won the Richard von Mises Prize of the Gesellschaft für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik in 1995.[6]
