Thomas Kappeler (12. February in 1953; † 30. May in 2022) was a Swiss mathematician and professor at University of Zurich.[1] Kappeler's main research was in global analysis and dynamical systems in infinite dimensions.
Kappeler co-founded the Zurich Graduate School in Mathematics, a joint doctoral program of the Mathematics departments of ETH Zurich and University of Zurich.[2] He also actively supported young kids that with mathematics talent. He was the co-leader of the children's math club Junior Euler Society.[3]
