Rafael Amer Ramon

Rafael Amer Ramon is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), specifically affiliated with the Escola Superior d'Enginyeries Industrial, Aeroespacial i Audiovisual de Terrassa (ESEIAAT). He leads and is an active member of the GRTJ - Grup de Recerca en Teoria de Jocs (Game Theory Research Group) at UPC, with a distinguished career spanning over three decades of research and academic contributions.

His research interests primarily focus on Game Theory, with special emphasis on cooperative games, power indices, voting systems, coalition structures, and semivalues. Dr. Amer Ramon's work bridges theoretical mathematics with practical applications in social choice, decision theory, and network analysis. His research demonstrates a consistent trajectory from fundamental mathematical structures of game theory to their applications in voting systems, cooperative decision-making, and network analysis.

Analyzing his publication record, Amer Ramon has demonstrated remarkable consistency and productivity, with over 143 documented academic activities. His work shows a clear evolution from foundational mathematical aspects of game theory to increasingly sophisticated applications in social choice and network structures. The most recent publications indicate continued active engagement in both theoretical game theory and educational innovation within engineering programs.
