Lasse Rempe-Gillen


Lasse Rempe-Gillen is a German mathematician born in Kiel. His research interests include holomorphic dynamics, function theory, continuum theory and computational complexity theory. He currently holds the position of Professor for Pure Mathematics, and Deputy Head of Department for REF at the University of Liverpool. Rempe recorded the voiceover for a BBC feature on the art of mathematics, where he explained how certain pictures have arisen from dynamical systems.

Name

In 2012 he changed his name from Lasse Rempe to Lasse Rempe-Gillen.

Early life and education

Rempe-Gillen earned his Master of Arts degree in mathematics from State University of New York at Stony Brook in 2000 and his doctorate in at the University of Kiel in Germany.

Awards

In June 2010, Rempe was awarded a Whitehead Prize by the London Mathematical Society for his work in complex dynamics, in particular his research on the escaping set for entire functions.
In 2012 he was awarded a Philip Leverhulme Prize
He was elected as a member of the 2017 class of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society "for contributions to complex dynamics and function theory, and for communication of mathematical research to broader audiences".
