Ana Maria Alonso Rodriguez is a Full Professor of Numerical Analysis at the Department of Mathematics, University of Trento. She holds a PhD in Applied Mathematics from Universidad Complutense de Madrid (1993) and has held academic positions across Italy and Spain since 1990. Her research focuses on numerical methods for partial differential equations, computational electromagnetism, finite element methods, and domain decomposition techniques. She has organized international workshops and minisymposia, including the 2022 Oberwolfach workshop on Hilbert Complexes and the 2018 ICOSAHOM conference session on high-order methods. Her work bridges numerical analysis, topology, and applied electromagnetism, with recent contributions to Whitney finite elements and discrete potential theory. Education: PhD in Applied Mathematics, Universidad Complutense de Madrid (1988-1993) Licenciatura en Ciencias Matematicas, same institution (1982-1987) Research emphasizes high-order discretizations for electromagnetic problems, leveraging finite element exterior calculus and graph-based decomposition techniques. Recent work (2024) advances tree-cotree methods for curl operator spectra and Whitney form interpolation. She actively collaborates with international institutions like the CI2MA in Chile and the Laboratoire J. A. Dieudonné in France. Teaching includes courses on numerical PDEs, finite elements, computational electromagnetism, and MATLAB-based numerical analysis at both undergraduate and PhD levels. She has supervised numerous courses in Italy and Spain since 2000, integrating practical software tools like FreeFem and MODULEF into instruction.
