Ivan Gimenez Palacios

Ivan Gimenez Palacios is an academic researcher and Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Mathematics, University of Valencia, where he works in the Department of Statistics and Operations Research. He is a member of the OPTIMATH research group focused on Optimization and Mathematical Modeling. He completed his PhD in 2022 at the Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha.

Research Interests: His work centers on solving real-world logistics and distribution problems using mathematical optimization and heuristic algorithms. His research spans operations research, combinatorial optimization, packing problems, and the development of efficient computational methods for complex systems. He applies mathematical modeling to improve efficiency in supply chain and distribution networks.

The recent publications indicate a strong focus on algorithmic design and analysis, particularly in optimization and numerical methods for nonlinear systems. His thesis and early research demonstrate a blend of theoretical rigor and practical application in industrial logistics.

Scientific Contributions:

• Developed heuristic algorithms for packing and distribution logistics.
• Contributed to the stability and efficiency analysis of iterative numerical methods.

Advising and Collaboration: He was supervised during his PhD by Dr. Francisco Parreño Torres, Dr. Ramón Álvarez Valdés Olaguíbel, and Dr. María Teresa Alonso Martínez. He has collaborated with researchers such as Cordero and Torregrosa on numerical methods. Currently, there is no public list of students he has advised.

Labs and Research Groups: He is actively involved in the OPTIMATH (Optimization and Mathematical Modelling) research group at the University of Valencia, which focuses on developing advanced mathematical tools for engineering, logistics, and industrial applications.
