Sabine Bögli
Sabine Bögli (also published as Boegli) is a Swiss mathematician specialising in mathematical analysis, including the spectral theory of non-self-adjoint Schrödinger operators and their applications in mathematical physics.[1] Her research has resolved a decades-old dispute over the location of autoionizing resonances in atoms and molecules,[1][2][3] answered a longstanding open question on the accumulation of eigenvalues of Schrödinger operators,[1][4] and disproved a conjecture of Laptev and Safronov relating the magnitude of these eigenvalues to the norm of the potential.[1][4] She works in England as an associate professor at Durham University.[5]
Education and career
[edit]Bögli is Swiss, and speaks Swiss German natively. After secondary education at the Gymnasium Biel-Seeland in Biel/Bienne, she studied mathematics at the University of Bern, receiving a bachelor's degree in 2010, a master's degree in 2012, and a Ph.D. in 2014.[6] Her doctoral dissertation, Spectral approximation for linear operators and applications, was supervised by Christiane Tretter.[6][7]
After postdoctoral research at the University of Bern, Cardiff University, Imperial College London, and Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, and a Chapman Fellowship at Imperial College London, she joined Durham University as an assistant professor in 2019. She was promoted to associate professor in 2023.[6]
Recognition
[edit]Bögli was a 2024 recipient of the Whitehead Prize of the London Mathematical Society, given for her research on Schrödinger operators.[1][8]
