معرفی
Professor Iskander Aliev holds a Personal Chair in the School of Mathematics at Cardiff University. His research spans integer optimization, discrete mathematics, and number theory, with significant contributions to the geometry of numbers and Diophantine approximations.
Research Interests:
- Integer Optimization using Algebraic and Geometric Methods
- Discrete Mathematics including Geometry of Numbers and Discrete Geometry
- Number Theory with focus on Diophantine Approximations and Additive Number Theory
His recent publications demonstrate strong trends in integer programming, particularly examining sparsity properties, proximity bounds, and integrality gaps. His work connects discrete geometry with optimization theory, often focusing on lattice structures and their applications to computational problems across mathematics and computer science.
Scientific Recognition:
- Editor of Beiträge zur Algebra und Geometrie
- Editor of Combinatorics and Number Theory
- Recipient of EPSRC grant EP/Y032551/1 for "Average-case proximity for integer optimisation" (June 2024-May 2025)
Professor Aliev is actively involved in research within the Operational Research, Mathematical Analysis, and Discrete Mathematics and Data Science groups at Cardiff University. His teaching includes MA3007 Coding Theory and MA3603 Optimisation courses. His extensive publication record spans from 1998 to 2025, reflecting sustained contributions to his fields of expertise.
His PhD was completed at IM PAN under Prof. Andrzej Schinzel, and his MSc at St.-Petersburg State University under Prof. Yuri Matiyasevich, establishing strong foundations in mathematical theory that continue to inform his research.
