Quoting the jury report,
"Christoph Thiele is a prominent German mathematician renowned for his profound contributions to the area of Harmonic Analysis. His work has introduced groundbreaking techniques and solved long-standing problems. His influence began with strikingly original papers on Carleson's theorem and the bilinear Hilbert transform. This work laid the foundation for what is now considered advanced time-frequency analysis, a field he has continued to shape through deep collaborations over the years.Equally extraordinary are his contributions to the mentoring and training of graduate students and postdocs. His influential summer school model, established first at UCLA and then in Bonn, has been successfully adopted by others. Recently, Thiele has demonstrated his pioneering spirit by initiating a collaboration on the LEAN formalization of a vast generalization of Carleson's theorem. The successful completion of this work will be a landmark achievement, considered the first major formalization project in the field of analysis."
The Brouwer Medal is a triennial award presented by the Royal Dutch Mathematical Society and the Royal Netherlands Academy of Sciences. It gets its name from Dutch mathematician L. E. J. Brouwer and is the Netherlands’ most prestigious award in mathematics.
Christoph Thiele studied mathematics at the University of Darmstadt and the University of Bielefeld, received his doctorate from Yale University and qualified for professorship at the University of Kiel. He held the position of Professor at the University of California in Los Angeles from 1998 to 2012 and since then has been Hausdorff Chair at the University of Bonn. Thiele has received numerous awards including the Salem Prize and Humbolt Research Prize and was also invited to speak at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 2002. Recently, Christoph Thiele has been awarded an ERC Synergy Grant of 6.4 million euros together with Floris van Doorn.
