Annie Cuyt
Belgian mathematician From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Annie A. M. Cuyt (born 1956) is a Belgian computational mathematician known for her work on continued fractions, numerical analysis, Padé approximants, and related topics.[1] She is a professor at the University of Antwerp, and a member of the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for Science and the Arts.
Cuyt was born on 27 May 1956 in Elizabethstad (now Lubumbashi), in the Belgian Congo.[1][2] She earned her Ph.D. at the University of Antwerp in 1982. Her dissertation, Padé approximants for operators: theory and applications, was promoted by Luc Wuytack.[3] She was a postdoctoral researcher with support from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, and completed a habilitation in 1986.[2]
She is a professor in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Antwerp,[4] where she leads the computational mathematics group.[5]
Cuyt is the author or coauthor of:
- Padé Approximants for Operators: Theory and Applications (Lecture Notes in Mathematics 1065, Springer, 1984)[6]
- Nonlinear Methods in Numerical Analysis (with Luc Wuytack, North-Holland Mathematics Studies 136, North-Holland, 1987)[7]
- Handbook of Continued Fractions for Special Functions (with Vigdis Brevik Petersen, Brigitte Verdonk, Haakon Waadeland, and William B. Jones, Springer, 2008)[8]
Cuyt was elected to the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for Science and the Arts in 2013.[4] The 4th Dolomites Workshop on Constructive Approximation and Applications, in 2016, and a special issue of the Dolomites Research Notes on Approximation, published in 2017, were dedicated to Cuyt in honor of her 60th birthday.[1]
