Hanne Hardering

I am a postdoc at the institute of numerical mathematics at the TU Dresden.

My scientific interests lie at the interface of numerics, partial differential equations and differential geometry, in particular in the area of finite element methods on surfaces and with values on Riemannian manifolds.
