Ana Cannas da Silva
Ana Cannas da Silva (* 1968 ) is a Portuguese mathematician who studies symplectic geometry , geometric topology and geometric analysis.
She studied applied mathematics and computer science at the Instituto Superior Técnico in Lisbon with a degree in 1990 and completed her doctorate in 1996 with Victor Guillemin at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( Multiplicity formulas for orbifolds ). She taught at the University of California, Berkeley (1998), in Lisbon at the Instituto Superior Técnico, at Princeton University and is a professor at the ETH Zurich , where she still teaches in Lisbon.
Among other things, she was visiting scholar at the IMPA in Rio de Janeiro, the Institute for Advanced Study (2001), the IRMA in Strasbourg, the MSRI (1997), the CRM in Barcelona, the Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge and the Max Planck Institute for mathematics in Bonn.
