Ulrich Dierkes

Ulrich Dierkes is a Professor in Mathematical Computer Science at the University of Duisburg-Essen, specializing in geometric analysis and variational problems. His research investigates minimal surfaces, singular PDEs, and multidimensional optimization.

Research Focus: Key contributions include foundational work on singular minimal surfaces, Bernstein theorems in controlled growth settings, and n-dimensional extensions of classical variational problems. Recent studies resolve questions about cylindrical and symmetric minimal surfaces.

Publications: Authored seminal monographs like 'Minimal Surfaces' (Springer, 2010) and published extensively on geometric PDEs. Articles emphasize existence theorems, regularity, and singular solutions in variational calculus.
