Welcome to the home page of the Optimization and Control Theory Department of the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science of the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań.
The staff of the Department conduct research in selected problems of two domains: convex and nonlinear analysis. In particular, algebraic, analytic, geometrical and topological properties of pairs of closed convex sets are investigated, among others:
are recurrent topics.
Another direction of research is nonlinear analysis. Among the topics discussed are:
Prof. UAM dr hab. Dariusz Bugajewski, dr Marcin Borkowski and mgr Piotr Kasprzak took part in 6th Symposium on Nonlinear Analysis, 7-9 September, Toruń, Poland.
Prof. UAM dr hab. Dariusz Bugajewski (in collaboration with mgr Piotr Kasprzak) delivered a short talk entitled Nonlinear integral equations in spaces of functions of bounded variation. The method of mappings of higher order.
Dr Marcin Borkowski (in collaboration with Marcin Wachowiak) delivered a short talk entitled On a Leray-Schauder type theorem.
From 2011-09-03 to 2011-10-01 the Optimization and Control Theory Department hosted professor David Yost from University of Ballarat, Australia. During the stay in Poznań, professor Yost conducted scientific research and delivered a talk.
