Fabio Toninelli

Fabio Toninelli is an Italian mathematician who works in probability theory, stochastic processes and probabilistic aspects of mathematical physics.

Education

He obtained his PhD in physics, in 2003, from Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa.

Career

Between 2004 and 2020 he was senior researcher at Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in Lyon. Since 2020 he has been Professor of Mathematics at Technische Universität Wien.
In 2021–2024 he was co-editor-in-chief of the journal Probability Theory and Related Fields.

Research

Toninelli has contributed substantially to the mathematical theory of disordered statistical mechanical systems, mixing of Markov chains, dimer models. His most significant contributions concern the theory of mean-field spin glasses, of polymers in random environments and of stochastic interface dynamics.

Recognition

Toninelli was an invited speaker of the International Congress of Mathematicians ICM-2018, an invited plenary speaker of the 9th European Congress of Mathematics, an invited plenary speaker of the International Congress on Mathematical Physics ICMP-2018, and an invited plenary speaker of the Conference on Stochastic Processes and their Applications SPA-2014.
