Jürgen Gärtner

Jürgen Gärtner (born 1950) is a German mathematician, specializing in probability theory and analysis.

[1] At the Weierstrass Institute, Gärtner was from 1976 to 1985 a research associate; he habilitated there in 1984 with Dissertation B: Zur Ausbreitung von Wellenfronten für Reaktions-Diffusions-Gleichungen (The propagation of wave fronts for reaction-diffusion equations).

[4] In 1987 Gärtner, with Donald A. Dawson, introduced the construction of a projective limit in the LDP.

From 1987 to 1989 Gärtner and Dawson wrote a series of important papers on the McKean-Vlasov process.

In 1994 he was an invited speaker with talk Parabolic Systems in Random Media and Aspects of Intermittency at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Zürich.
