The 2014 Richard C. DiPrima Prize is awarded to Thomas D. Trogdon for his doctoral dissertation, “Riemann-Hilbert Problems, Their Numerical Solution and the Computation of Nonlinear Special Functions.” His dissertation has made outstanding contributions to the theory of and numerical methods for Riemann-Hilbert Problems and their applications to integrable systems, nonlinear partial differential equations, including the KdV and nonlinear Schrödinger equations, and special functions. The clear and elegant exposition of the subject abounds with new insight, rigorous theory and convergence results for new and powerful numerical methods.
