Leonida Tonelli (1885–1961) was an Italian mathematician renowned for his contributions to the fields of calculus of variations and partial differential equations. He is particularly known for Tonelli's theorem, which deals with the conditions under which certain types of variational problems have solutions. His work has had a significant impact on mathematical analysis and the study of functions of several variables, particularly in the context of convex analysis.
