Christoph Thiele, born September 10, 1968 in Darmstadt, is a German mathematician who works in harmonic analysis. He studied at TU Darmstadt and Bielefeld University, earned his PhD in 1995 at Yale under Ronald Coifman, and later became a full professor at UCLA before taking the Hausdorff Chair at the University of Bonn. He is known for his work with Michael Lacey on the bilinear Hilbert transform and for a simpler proof of Carleson’s theorem, which helped shape time-frequency analysis. He won the 1996 Salem Prize, was invited to speak at the 2002 International Congress of Mathematicians, and is a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society.
