Aleksandr Malyshev is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Bergen. His research integrates numerical linear algebra, stability theory, optimisation-based control, and image-processing algorithms, yielding a portfolio of more than 60 peer-reviewed articles and conference contributions. Education & affiliations: Professor, Department of Mathematics, University of Bergen, Norway (present) Previous research and teaching engagements in informatics and applied mathematics at the same university Research interests: Malyshev’s core interest is the theoretical and algorithmic analysis of matrix problems arising in stability, control and imaging. He develops numerically reliable tools for assessing the distance to instability of dynamical systems, constructs preconditioners that accelerate optimisation solvers in real-time model predictive control, and designs variational models for 3-D reconstruction and image denoising. His work frequently combines spectral theory of matrix polynomials with practical issues such as high-performance implementation and medical-image quantification. Across the last decade his articles reveal three dominant strands: (i) stability and perturbation of time-delay and periodic systems, (ii) preconditioned iterative solvers for interior-point and MPC formulations, and (iii) variational and learning-based approaches to depth estimation, surface reconstruction and glenoid-bone assessment. These themes are unified by a common mathematical substrate—exploitation of matrix structure to obtain computationally efficient, numerically trustworthy solutions. Scientific awards & recognition: Regular invited speaker at international workshops on numerical linear algebra and control (e.g., SK Godunov conference 2009, IFAC 2018) Funded principal investigator / co-investigator on Research Council of Norway and EU Horizon Europe grants Advising & grants: Malyshev has supervised numerous MSc and PhD candidates in numerical analysis and scientific computing and currently advises graduate researchers on projects ranging from 3-D machine-vision algorithms to Krylov-subspace preconditioning. Recent grant participation includes EU project 101373 (3-D quantification of glenoid bone loss) and the Norwegian Research Council project 262203 on perfusion-flow simulation. Labs & collaboration: He collaborates closely with the Group for Numerical Methods and Applications at UiB, the Visual Computing cluster at the Department of Informatics, and maintains international partnerships with the Universities of Brest, Lübeck, and several US institutions. These joint efforts feed cross-disciplinary projects combining rigorous matrix analysis with real-world applications in biomechanics, process control, and computer vision.
