The Center for Mathematical Modeling director, Alejandro Jofré, was invited to deliver the plenary talk at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, SIAM, [http://www.siam.org] to be held in San Diego from July 8th through the 12th.
This meeting is one of the most important encounters of mathematicians worldwide. Since 2013 is designated as the year of Math of Planet Earth, SIAM will dedicate this version of the meeting to that main subject.
Researchers, scientist and academics of dozens of scientific societies, universities, research institutes, and foundations all over the world will get together in this occasion to share several ways that mathematics helps to understand the planet and outcome with solutions for related topics, such as meteorology and climate, natural resources, solar systems, ecology, biodiversity, evolution, transport and communications networks, energy, climate change, sustainable development, and natural disasters, between others.
In this context, Alejandro Jofré will dedicate his talk to his work on Stochastic Optimization and game theory on energy markets.
Professor Jofré holds a Ph.D. and Habilitation on Applied Mathematics in France, he is associate editor of 5 journals in these areas and has dedicated years to the research on optimization and equilibrium, mainly focused on network economics and incomplete market models coming from energy, telecommunication and financial markets as well as sustainable exploitation of natural resources issues.
