He is an analyst with broad expertise in the calculus of variations, geometric measure theory, partial differential equations, and fluid dynamics. Using modern tools and innovative approaches, De Lellis has contributed to central problems in analysis and geometry, among them the Onsager conjecture and the regularity theory for minimal surfaces. He serves on the editorial boards of the Encyclopedia of Mathematics and Unitext Springer. De Lellis earned degrees from Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa and the University of Pisa. He held a postdoctoral position at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences, followed by a postdoctoral residency at Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich. He joined the Faculty of the University of Zuerich in 2004 and he was promoted to Full Professor in 2005. He moved to the Institute for Advanced Study in 2018.
