An interview with Professor Camillo De Lellis
Abstract
Camillo De Lellis is a mathematician known for his influential work in geometric measure theory, hyperbolic systems of conservation laws, and incompressible fluid dynamics. Born in 1976, he earned his PhD at La Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa, Italy, advised by Luigi Ambrosio. Among his many contributions, De Lellis is especially well-known for his modernization of Almgren’s regularity theory, which relates to singularities of area-minimizing surfaces. He has received many awards for his work, including the 2013 Fermat Prize and 2022 Maryam Mirzakhani Prize in Mathematics.
