The research team investigates mathematical structures that are important in several basic areas of mathematics like geometry, representation theory, functional analysis, differential calculus or theory of approximation. The motivation also comes from outside mathematics, from computer science or physics where some of the mathematical structures that are studied are called upon as models. By application of methods from category theory the ...

In operations research, a challenging research area is combinatorial optimization. Next to exact methods such as branch-and-bound, branch-and-price, also approximation algorithms are studied. Assignment and scheduling problems, winner determination problems and research on client-oriented vehicle routing problems are some of the subjects under study. Further emphasis is placed on machine scheduling, resource-constrained project planning and ...
