Martin Hairer, Austrian mathematician. This photo was taken during an interview with the NZZ am Sonntag newspaper. The interview touched on, among other things, a mathematical equation that describes how a line, in this case the front of a flame, moves in a two-dimensional medium. The photograph was taken on November 30, 2016, in a classroom at the University of Bern in Bern.
