Vincenzo Recupero

Vincenzo Recupero is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences "GL Lagrange" (DISMA) at Politecnico di Torino, Italy. His research and teaching are centered on advanced topics in mathematical analysis, with a focus on functional, nonlinear, and quaternionic analysis, as well as partial differential equations and hysteresis models. He teaches core mathematics courses such as Mathematical Analysis II and Mathematical Methods for Engineering to undergraduate students in computer, mechanical, and engineering physics programs, and also lectures in PhD programs on variational evolution problems.

His research interests span Quaternionic and Hypercomplex Analysis, motivated by applications in quantum mechanics; Partial Differential Equations in Phase Transition Models such as Penrose-Fife and Stefan systems; and Rate-Independent Processes and Moreau Sweeping Processes, with applications in elastoplasticity, hysteresis, and crowd dynamics. His work emphasizes the well-posedness and continuity of solution operators under various topologies, ensuring robustness and applicability of mathematical models.

The recent publications (2011–2023) reflect a consistent focus on sweeping processes, BV solutions, and quaternionic operator semigroups, with increasing sophistication in algebraic and functional-analytic frameworks. These works appear in prestigious journals such as Transactions of the American Mathematical Society and Journal of Differential Equations, indicating strong theoretical contributions to nonlinear analysis and mathematical physics.

He is actively involved in the academic community, serving on program committees for international conferences like the International Symposium on Hysteresis Modeling and Micromagnetics (HMM 2025) and chairing organizing committees for summer schools on multi-rate processes and slow-fast systems. His research is aligned with ERC sectors in analysis, mathematical physics, and dynamical systems, and contributes to UN SDGs on quality education and reduced inequalities.
