Françoise Tisseur is a numerical analyst and Professor of Numerical Analysis{{cite web|url=http://www.manchester.ac.uk/research/francoise.tisseur|title=Françoise Tisseur – Personal Details|author=University of Manchester|accessdate=October 25, 2010}}
at the Department of Mathematics, University of Manchester, UK.
She works in numerical linear algebra and in particular on nonlinear eigenvalue problems and structured matrix problems,
including the development of algorithms and software.{{cite web|url=http://www.manchester.ac.uk/research/francoise.tisseur/research|title=Françoise Tisseur – Research|author=University of Manchester|accessdate=August 26, 2012}}
She is a graduate of the
University of St-Etienne, France, from where she gained her
Maitrise (Mathematical Engineering) in 1993,
Diplome d'Etude Approfondie in 1994, and PhD (Numerical Analysis) in 1997.
She has contributed software to LAPACK, ScaLAPACK, and the MATLAB distribution.
Tisseur is a member of the editorial boards of the SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications, the IMA Journal of Numerical Analysis and the Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra.
Awards and honours
Tisseur was awarded the 2010 Whitehead Prize by the London Mathematical Society for her research achievements in numerical linear algebra, including polynomial eigenvalue and structured matrix problems.
She was awarded the 2011–2012 Adams Prize of the University of Cambridge
for her work on polynomial eigenvalue problems and holds a Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award in 2014–2019. She delivered the Olga Taussky-Tood Lecture at the International Congress on Industrial and Applied Mathematics in Valencia, Spain, in 2019.{{Cite web|url=http://www.iciam.org/olga-taussky-todd-lecture-iciam-2019|title=The Olga Taussky-Todd Lecture at ICIAM 2019 {{!}} ICIAM|website=www.iciam.org|language=en|access-date=2018-10-10}} She is the 2020 winner of the Fröhlich Prize of the London Mathematical Society "for her important and highly innovative contributions to the analysis, perturbation theory, and numerical solution of nonlinear eigenvalue problems".{{cite web|url=https://www.lms.ac.uk/sites/lms.ac.uk/files/files/Tisseur_Frohlich_citation.pdf|publisher=London Mathematical Society|date=2020|accessdate=2020-06-27|title=Fröhlich Prize: Citation for Françoise Tisseur}}
Tisseur became a Fellow of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics in 2016 "for contributions to numerical linear algebra, especially numerical methods for eigenvalue problems".[http://fellows.siam.org/index.php?sort=year&value=2016 SIAM Fellows Class of 2016] She held an EPSRC Leadership Fellowship in 2011–2016,{{Cite news|url=https://www.manchester.ac.uk/discover/news/world-leading-academics-awarded-prestigious-fellowships/|title='World-leading' academics awarded prestigious fellowships|access-date=2018-10-17|language=en}} and is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications.
