Anna Dall'Acqua

Prof. Dr. Anna Dall'Acqua holds a position as University Professor (Univ.-Prof.) at the Institute for Applied Analysis, Universität Ulm. Her research focuses on partial differential equations, calculus of variations, geometric analysis, and mathematical physics, with specific interests in higher-order elliptic problems, elastic curves, Willmore surfaces, and Hartree-Fock theory. She leads a research group and has supervised doctoral students including Gabriel Knöbl and Manuel Schlierf.

Her work is supported by grants from the German Research Foundation (DFG) and Taiwan’s MoST. Recent research includes studies on elastic networks, Willmore flow of tori, and obstacle problems in elasticity. She teaches advanced courses such as Functional Analysis, Calculus of Variations, and Analysis series at the university.

Prof. Dall'Acqua’s publications span over two decades, with contributions to journals like Calc. Var. PDEs, Journal of Differential Equations, and Analysis & PDE. Her habilitation thesis (2011) and earlier work on boundary value problems and pseudorelativistic Hartree-Fock systems highlight her interdisciplinary expertise.
