Anna-Karin Tornberg
Anna-Karin Tornberg (born September 29, 1971 ) is a Swedish mathematician who specializes in numerical mathematics .
Tornberg received his doctorate in 2000 with Björn Engquist at the Royal Technical University of Stockholm (KTH) ( Interface Tracing Methods with Application to Multiphase Flows ). As a post-doctoral student , she was at the Courant Institute , where she became Assistant Professor in 2003 and Associate Professor (with tenure) in 2007. In 2007 she became a lecturer at the KTH and in 2012 she was given a full professorship for numerical analysis. She is at the Linné Flow Center at KTH and at the Swedish e-Science Research Center (fast methods of electrostatic calculations in simulations of molecular dynamics).
It deals with numerical algorithms for the solution of partial differential equations, especially for multiphase hydrodynamics and in dynamic geometries (interface tracking methods, especially surface representation of dynamic interfaces).
In 2004 she was invited speaker at the European Congress of Mathematicians in Stockholm. For 2018 she is the invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Rio de Janeiro . In 2015 she became a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering and in 2010 of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. In 2014 she received the Göran Gustaffson Prize (as the first woman). In 2006 she was a Sloan Research Fellow. She is on the council of the Mittag-Leffler Institute .
