Jörg Nick

Jörg Nick is a Postdoctoral researcher at the Seminar for Applied Mathematics at ETH Zurich, Switzerland. His academic journey includes a Doctorate degree in Mathematics from the University of Tübingen (2023) under Prof. Christian Lubich and an MSc in Mathematics from the same institution (2018). He previously held a postdoctoral position at the University of Tübingen (2023) and was a doctoral researcher there from 2018 to 2023, associated with the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) project Wave phenomena: analysis and numerics, specifically Project A2 on numerical methods for wave problems with nontrivial boundary conditions.

His research focuses on the numerical analysis of partial differential equations (PDEs), particularly wave scattering and metamaterials. Key areas include integral equations for PDEs, dynamical parametric approximation, numerical methods for time-dependent metamaterials, and inverse problems in wave phenomena. His work often integrates the Boundary Element Method (BEM) and Convolution Quadrature (CQ) to analyze wave scattering and subwavelength resonators.

Notable contributions include studies on electromagnetic scattering from dispersive materials, time-periodic coefficients in wave equations, and regularized parametric approximation techniques. His research bridges theoretical developments with practical applications in metamaterials and medical imaging (e.g., anomaly detection in capsule endoscopy using ensemble learning).

His academic affiliations include the Collaborative Research Center (CRC) 1173 at Tübingen and current participation in ETH Zurich’s mathematical and computational initiatives. While no formal awards are listed, his prolific publication record reflects sustained contributions to numerical mathematics and applied physics.
