Awards
In June 2010, Rempe was awarded a Whitehead Prize by the London Mathematical Society for his work in complex dynamics, in particular his research on the escaping set for entire functions.{{cite magazine|magazine=London Mathematical Society Newsletter|url=https://www.lms.ac.uk/sites/lms.ac.uk/files/files/394%20-%20July%202010.pdf|issue=394|date=July 2010|title=LMS Prizes 2010|page=16}}
In 2012 he was awarded a Philip Leverhulme Prize.{{Cite web |url=https://www.leverhulme.ac.uk/sites/default/files/imported_pdfs/2012%20prize%20winners%20+%20citations.pdf |title=Philip Leverhulme Prize Winners 2012 |access-date=2015-06-15 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180402225750/https://www.leverhulme.ac.uk/sites/default/files/imported_pdfs/2012%20prize%20winners%20+%20citations.pdf |archive-date=2018-04-02 |url-status=dead }}
He was elected as a member of the 2017 class of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society "for contributions to complex dynamics and function theory, and for communication of mathematical research to broader audiences".[https://www.ams.org/profession/ams-fellows/new-fellows 2017 Class of the Fellows of the AMS], American Mathematical Society, retrieved 2016-11-06.
