Rate My Professor Manuel Blickle

Blickle received his PhD in 2001 from the University of Michigan, advised by Karen E. Smith, for his dissertation 'The Intersection Homology D-Module in Finite Characteristic,' later published in Mathematische Annalen (2004). Prior to Mainz, he was affiliated with Universität Duisburg-Essen, where he conducted research and received the Gottschalk-Diederich-Baedeker Prize. At Mainz, he has supervised PhD students including Susanne Müller (2017) and Tobias Schedlmeier (2016). His prolific publication record features highly influential works such as 'Discreteness and Rationality of F-Thresholds' (Michigan Mathematical Journal, 2008; 195 citations), 'Cartier Modules: Finiteness Results' (2009; 100 citations), 'F-Thresholds of Hypersurfaces' (Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 2009; 98 citations), 'Test Ideals via Algebras of p-Linear Maps' (2009; 94 citations), 'Discreteness and Rationality of F-Jumping Numbers on Singular Varieties' (Mathematische Annalen, 2010; 82 citations), and 'p^{-1}-Linear Maps in Algebra and Geometry' (2012; 70 citations). With over 1,392 citations and an h-index of 20 on Google Scholar, Blickle's contributions have advanced understanding in F-singularities and related areas. He contributes to initiatives like the CRC GAUS and the Excellence Track Algebra, and organizes seminars and conferences such as on mixed Hodge modules and Arakelov geometry.
