Andres Marcos Encinas Bachiller is a full Professor at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), affiliated with the Faculty of Mathematics and Statistics and the Department of Mathematics. He holds a Licenciado and Doctorado in Mathematics from the same institution. Professional Category: University Titular (equivalent to Professor). Research Groups: MAPTHE (Matrix Analysis and Discrete Potential Theory), OMGRAPH (Optimization Methods on Graphs). His research focuses on discrete vector calculus, boundary and inverse problems on networks, effective resistance, and M-matrix theory. He has contributed extensively to matrix analysis and its applications in network science, particularly in electrical impedance tomography and graph theory. Recent work includes studies on tridiagonal M-matrices, group inverses, and applications in medical imaging through discrete inverse problems. His articles span linear algebra, network analysis, and combinatorial matrix theory, with a focus on theoretical and applied aspects of these fields. He has supervised doctoral research, including Álvaro Samperio Valdivieso's thesis on inverse problems in networks. His projects include developing EIT devices for breast cancer detection and optimizing methods on graphs. Collaborations involve researchers in algebra, engineering, and applied mathematics. He is actively involved in research networks, including the ALAMA network (Linear Algebra and Matrix Analysis), and has led competitive projects funded by Spanish and Catalan agencies.
