Awards and honors
editXu has published nearly 200 scientific papers and was ranked among the most highly cited mathematicians in the world by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) (e.g. top 25 worldwide for the years 1991 to 2001). He was a plenary speaker at the International Congress on Industrial and Applied Mathematics[1] in 2007 and a 45-minute invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians 2010, Hyderabad.[2] In 2011, Xu was honored as a Fellow of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM)[3] for his outstanding contributions to the theory and applications of multilevel and adaptive numerical methods. In 2012, he was elected as an inaugural Fellow of the American Mathematical Society (AMS).[4]
Xu received the Liu Memorial Award at Cornell University in 1988, the Natural Science Award from the National Academy of Science in China in 1989, and the Schlumberger Foundation Award in 1993. In 1995, Xu's research accomplishments were recognized with the first Feng Kang Prize for Scientific Computing[5] from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. In honor of his achievements in computational mathematics research and teaching, he received the Humboldt Award for Senior U.S. Scientists in 2005. He also received the Research Award for National Outstanding Youth (Class B) in 2006 in China. In 2019, Xu was named a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science(AAAS).
