Fioralba Cakoni
Fioralba Cakoni is an American-Albanian mathematician and an expert on inverse scattering theory. She is a professor of mathematics at Rutgers University.Education and career
Cakoni earned bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Tirana in 1987 and 1990 respectively. She completed her Ph.D. in 1996, jointly between the University of Tirana and University of Patras, supervised by George Dassios. Her dissertation was Some Results on the Abstract Wave Equation. Problems of the Scattering Theory in Elasticity and Thermoelasticity in Low-Frequency.
She became a lecturer at the University of Tirana and then, from 1998 to 2000, a Humboldt Research Fellow at the University of Stuttgart. She came to the US for additional postdoctoral research at the University of Delaware in 2000, and stayed at Delaware as an assistant professor beginning in 2002. She moved to Rutgers in 2015.Books
