Robin Neumayer

Robin Neumayer is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Carnegie Mellon University. Her research focuses on the intersection of calculus of variations, partial differential equations (PDE), and geometric analysis, with a particular emphasis on stability and regularity in geometric inequalities.

Education:

• Ph.D. in Mathematics, University of Texas at Austin, supervised by Alessio Figalli and Francesco Maggi.

Her work explores problems related to Sobolev inequalities, isoperimetric problems, scalar curvature, and free boundary phenomena. Recent publications highlight collaborations with leading researchers and address topics such as quantitative stability, anisotropic geometries, and nonlinear PDE.

Scientific Awards and Fellowships:

• NSF Grant DMS-2155054 (2022-2025)
• RTG Postdoctoral Fellow at Northwestern University (2017-18, 2019-21)
• Institute for Advanced Study member (2018-19)

She teaches courses such as Introduction to Differential Equations and maintains active research collaborations with institutions like the Center for Nonlinear Analysis.
