Bernold Fiedler

Bernold Fiedler (born May 15, 1956 ) is a German mathematician who deals with nonlinear dynamics .

Fiedler studied at the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg , where he obtained his mathematics diploma in 1980 ( a predator-prey system with two time lags ) and received his doctorate in 1983 ( stability change and global Hopf branching ). He is a professor at the Institute for Mathematics at the Free University of Berlin .

Among other things, he dealt with pattern formation in reaction-diffusion equations (an area in which Alan Turing did pioneering work).

In 2008 he gave the Gauss lecture ( Nothing becomes nothing? Mathematics of self-organization ). In 2002 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Beijing (Bifurcations without parameters: some ODE and PDE examples, with Stefan Liebscher ).
