معرفی
Prof. Gadi Fibich is a Full Professor in the Department of Applied Mathematics at Tel Aviv University, where he has served since 1997, advancing from Lecturer to Senior Lecturer (2000), Associate Professor (2003), and Full Professor (2007). He also held a Visiting Professorship at the University of Maryland (2014-2016) and served as Head of the School of Mathematical Sciences (2017-2021).
Education
- B.Sc. in Applied Mathematics, Technion, 1988
- M.Sc. in Applied Mathematics, Technion, 1990
- Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics, Courant Institute, NYU, 1994
Research Interests
Prof. Fibich's work spans Nonlinear Optics (self-focusing, solitons, nonlinear Helmholtz equation), Nonlinear Pricing in marketing, Auction Theory, and Network Spreading Processes. He develops Asymptotic and Perturbation Methods for solving nonlinear PDEs and applies mathematical models to diverse fields like epidemiology, biophysics, and computer graphics.
Scientific Contributions
His recent publications focus on boundary effects, universal bounds, and phase transitions in network spreading processes, while his nonlinear optics research explores singular solutions, nonparaxial solitons, and numerical methods for wave collapse. He has also made significant contributions to asymmetric auction theory and nonlinear pricing models.
