General Introduction

The Optimization and Scientific Computing Group belongs to the Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics and was established under Decision No. 2501/QĐ-ĐHBK dated March 21, 2024, by the President of Hanoi University of Science and Technology. The group is responsible for the academic management of foundational and specialized courses with an applied mathematics orientation in the undergraduate and graduate programs of the Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics. To closely link education with scientific research, the group actively develops the following research areas:

Optimization Theory and Control

  • Optimal control and qualitative properties of control systems
  • Equilibrium problems and variational inequalities
  • Non-convex optimization, DC optimization
  • Multi-objective optimization and related problems
  • Discrete optimization
  • Optimization problems in quantum computing

Scientific Computing

  • Dynamical systems and applications
  • Theory of partial differential equations
  • Numerical solutions for partial differential equations
  • Mathematical modeling in complex systems and mathematical biology
  • Mathematical modeling in AI and deep learning

Research and Training Collaborations

Domestic: Institute of Mathematics, Vietnam Advanced Institute for Mathematics, University of Natural Sciences, Hanoi National University of Education, Hanoi International School – VNU, etc.
International: Technical University of Berlin (Germany), University of Graz (Austria), Ritsumeikan University (Japan), Sorbonne University (Paris 6, France), University of Lorraine (France), University of Bordeaux (France), University of Groningen (Netherlands), etc.

Scientific Projects

In addition to teaching, the group undertakes scientific tasks as assigned by the Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics. Notably, the group leads several programs, projects, and research topics in applied mathematics:

  • Interdisciplinary and internal-level projects
  • Ministry-level projects
  • Nafosted-funded projects
  • National Key Program for the Development of Mathematics
  • VinIF-funded projects
