Yannís G. Kevrekidis

Ioannis George (Yannís) Kevrekidis is the Pomeroy and Betty Perry Smith Professor of Engineering and Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering with the School of Engineering and Applied Science at Princeton University.[1]

Kevrekidis earned a diploma from the National Technical University of Athens in 1981, and a doctorate in mathematics from the University of Minnesota in 1987, under the supervision of Lanny D. Schmidt.[2] His research interests include scientific computation for complex/multiscale systems modeling; process dynamics, computer modeling, and applied mathematics; spatiotemporal pattern formation; and nonlinear system identification and control.

In 2003 he was awarded the J.D. Crawford Prize of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics for outstanding research in nonlinear science.[3] In 2010 the American Institute of Chemical Engineers gave him their Richard H. Wilhelm Award in Chemical Reaction Engineering.[4]
