Anna Gusakova

Prof. Dr. Anna Gusakova is an assistant professor (Juniorprofessorin) at the Institute for Mathematical Stochastics. Her major research area is Stochastic Geometry. This is a branch of modern probability theory, which is investigating various random geometric objects, starting from lines and polytopes and finishing by general random closed sets.

Marlies Pirner

Prof. Dr. Marlies Pirner is an assistant professor (Juniorprofessorin) of applied mathematics. She works in Applied Analysis on kinetic equations. In this description, the time evolution of a gas is described by using a probability density. This description is used for instance for plasmas and many astrophysical phenomena. Here, she considers questions in mathematical modeling and theoretical questions such as existence, qualitative behavior of solutions and convergence to equilibrium.

Eva Viehmann

Prof. Dr. Eva Viehmann is a professor of Arithmetic Geometry and Representation Theory. Her field of research bridges several subdiciplines of pure mathematics. It is part of the Langlands programme, which investigates far-reaching conjectured connections between algebraic number theory and representation theory. The methods come from algebraic geometry.
