Giuseppa Rita CIRMI

Giuseppa Rita CIRMI is an Associate Professor of Mathematical Analysis at the University of Catania, Italy, where she has been affiliated since 1993. Her work focuses on the study of partial differential equations (PDEs), particularly elliptic and parabolic equations, with emphasis on existence, regularity, and qualitative properties of weak solutions.

• Education:
  • Degree in Mathematics (cum laude), University of Catania (1988)
  • PhD in Mathematics, University of Catania - Catania-Messina-Palermo Consortium (1994)

Her research includes second-order and higher-order PDEs with non-regular coefficients, as well as variational inequalities. She has contributed to projects such as Pia.Ce.Ri 2020-22, focusing on elliptic equations and innovative teaching methods, and collaborative grants like PTR 2016-2018 and GNAMPA 2017.

• Scientific Awards:
  • Research Fellowship at Laboratoire d’Analyse, Topologie et Probabilities (1999)

She has taught across multiple degree programs, including Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics, and Engineering, and has served as a PhD student tutor and thesis advisor for master's students. Dr. Cirmi has co-organized international conferences like WCNA 2000, ISAAC 05, and NPDE 2009, and delivered invited talks at events such as ICNAAM 2021 and AIMS Conference. She is a reviewer for the American Mathematical Society and serves on editorial boards of journals including Open Mathematics and Pure and Applied Mathematics.
