Daniela De Silva is an Italian mathematician known for her expertise in partial differential equations.
[1][2] She is an associate professor of mathematics at Barnard College and Columbia University.
De Silva did her undergraduate studies in mathematics at the University of Naples Federico II, and earned a bachelor's degree there in 1997.
Her dissertation, Existence and Regularity of Monotone Solutions to a Free Boundary Problem, was supervised by David Jerison.
[3] De Silva won the 2016 Sadosky Prize of the Association for Women in Mathematics for "fundamental contributions to the regularity theory of nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations and non-local integro-differential equations".
