Most of the research activities of the department belong to the field of applied mathematics. The focus is on theoretical problems as well as problems connected with implementation of methods in the following areas:

  • mathematical optimization
  • nonsmooth analysis
  • differential equations
  • variational problems
  • probabilistic models of decision support systems
  • conditional independence structures
  • uncertainty in artificial intelligence
  • mathematical logic
  • multicriteria decision making

Duration: 2017 - 2018
Many-valued logics are a prominent family of non-classical logics whose intended semantics uses more than the two classical truth-values, truth/false. The study of these logics is stimulated by strong mutually beneficial connections with other mathematical disciplines such as universal algebra, topology, and model, proof, game and category theory.
Duration: 2017 - 2019
New equilibrium models arising in economy and mechanics will be described by systems of evolutionary generalized equations (EGEs) and thoroughly investigated. Their characteristic feature is the presence of nonsmooth and set-valued mappings. We intend to study various concepts of solutions to systems of such generalized equations and their relevance for particular problems.
Duration: 2017 - 2019
In this project we intend to model individual decision making (DM), a cornerstone of microeconomic theory. First, we will participate in a long-standing discussion challenging the transitivity of preferences, a basic axiom of the expected utility theory. We will propose a DM theory with intransitive preferences and then explore its relationship to existing alternatives.

The accurate description of the complex thermomechanical behavior of solids requires the efficient treatment of strongly nonlinearly coupled partial differential equations systems.
Duration: 2016 - 2019
Substructural logics are formal reasoning systems that refine classical logic by weakening the structural rules in Gentzen sequent calculus. While classical logic generally formalises the notion of truth, substructural logics allow to handle notions such as resources, vagueness, meaning, and language syntax, motivated by studies in computer science, epistemology, economy, and linguistics.
Duration: 2016 - 2017
The accurate description of the complex thermomechanical behavior of solids requires the efficient treatment of strongly nonlinearly coupled partial differential equations systems. These stem from the combination of balance and constitutive equations, which in turn can be often rephrased in a variational setting from the specification of suitable equilibrium and dissipation potentials.
