Martin Hairer and Xue-Mei Li join EPFL MATH
The Board of the Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology has announced the appointment of Professor Martin Hairer, winner of the Fields Medal in 2014, and Professor Xue-Mei Li. Welcome Martin and Xue-Mei!
Professor Xue-Mei Li, currently Full Professor at Imperial College London, United Kingdom, has been appointed as Full Professor of Mathematics starting from November 1, 2022.
Xue-Mei Li’s expertise lies at the interface of stochastic analysis and differential geometry. Her research, which has been published in numerous leading journals, has made a significant contribution to the geometric analysis of stochastic processes on differentiable varieties, as well as to Malliavin calculus and infinite-dimensional analysis. The appointment of Xue-Mei Li will considerably strengthen EPFL's excellent reputation in the areas of probability and stochastic processes.

Martin Hairer is a mathematician globally renowned for his breakthrough work at the intersection of analysis and probability. In 2014 he won the Fields Medal for visionary work which introduced a radical new way of constructing solutions for certain nonlinear stochastic partial differential equations which had been intractable before, and which are of great importance in particular to physics. The appointment of Martin Hairer to EPFL will give strong impetus to analysis in particular and mathematics in general, consolidating EPFL as one of the world’s leading centres for analysis.
