Marlis Hochbruck (born July 12, 1964 in Krefeld ) is a German mathematician who deals with numerical mathematics and technomathematics .

After graduating from high school in Krefeld, Hochbruck studied applied mathematics (technical mathematics ) at the University of Karlsruhe (KIT) from 1983 , where she received her doctorate in 1992 under Wilhelm Niethammer (Lanczos and Krylov method for non-Hermitian linear systems) . In 1991 she also studied at NASA's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field. As a post-doctoral student , she was at the University of Zurich and assistant in Würzburg in 1992 and in Tübingen from 1994, where she completed her habilitation in 1997 (The Padé Table and its Relation to Certain Numerical Algorithms) . In 1997/98 she held a substitute professorship in industrial mathematics at the University of Kaiserslautern and in 1998 received a Heisenberg grant from the DFG. From 1998 she was Professor of Applied Mathematics at Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf , where she received the teaching award in 2009. She has been Professor of Applied and Numerical Mathematics at KIT since 2010. Since 2011 she has been the spokesperson for the Graduate School Analysis, Simulation and Design of Nanotechnological Processes . In 2015 she brought the SFB Wave Phenomena: Analysis and Numerics to KIT.

Among other things, she deals with numerical linear algebra (matrix functions, iteration methods for large linear systems of equations), numerical solutions of wave phenomena and evolution equations and Hamiltonian systems (e.g. symplectic Euler method , symplectic and exponential integrators) with applications, for example, to laser plasma Interaction, plasma physics, nanotechnology, molecular dynamics simulation and the time-dependent Schrödinger and Maxwell equations.

In 2014 she became Vice President of the German Research Foundation (DFG), in whose Senate she has been since 2011. Since 2014 she has been on the scientific advisory board of the Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics (WIAS) in Berlin.

From 2010 she was co-editor of the SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications and since 2012 of Electronic Transactions on Numerical Analysis (ETNA) .
