Research Interests
- Location: Location science deals with the location of one or
more facilities in a way that optimizes a certain objective, such as
minimizing transportation cost, minimizing the undesirable effects
produced by the facility, capturing the largest market share, etc.
Location of hospitals, supermarkets, petrol-stations, warehouses,
nuclear plants or radar beams are some examples. Location models differ
one another from the space where the facility is to be located (a subset
of the plane or of some n-dimensional space, a network, a
discrete set, ...), the number of new facilities to be located, the
number of existing facilities, the decision maker's objective and the
customers. The more realistic the problem is, the more difficult to find
its solution becomes.
Many other fields have direct connections with location science, either by
subject or as techniques used in the design of algorithms, such as
transportation and routing problems, mathematical (linear, integer,
nonlinear, convex, global, ...) programming, multicriteria analysis,
approximation theory, computational geometry, ...

- Global Optimization: One of the most important problems in
Mathematics is the one of optimizing a given function f(x), x in
Rn, subject to some
constraints, g(x)=0, h(x)<=0, where g is a m-vectorial
function and h a r-vectorial function. If (a) the
objective function f is convex and (b) the feasible set
defined by the points satisfying the constraints is convex, then
there are efficient algorithms which can solve the problem. They are
based of the fact that a local optimum is also a global
optimum.
Nevertheless, if one (or both) of those conditions does not hold, the
problem is much more difficult to solve, since there may exist local
optima that are not global. All standard techniques in nonlinear
optimization can at most locate local optimal points, and there is no
local criterion for deciding whether a local solution is global.
Therefore, conventional methods of optimization using such tools as
derivatives, gradients, subgradients and the like, are, in general, not
capable of locating or identifying a global optimum.
Due to those difficulties, the methods devised for solving global
optimization problems are significantly different from the standard
tools referred above. In order to build a numerically promising
implementation, additional properties of the problem's data usually have
to be exploited.
The following book is an excellent introduction to the area:

Deterministic approaches (3rd edition)", Springer-Verlag,
Berlin.
- Interval Analysis: Traditionally, a computer can only obtain
approximate solutions to a given problem. Even though approximations are
often satisfactory, they may nevertheless be inaccurate or even
completely wrong. Some disasters attributable to bad numerical computing
(the Patriot Missile failure, in Dharan, Saudi Arabia, on February 25,
1991 which resulted in 28 deaths; the explosion of the Ariane 5 rocket
just after lift-off on its maiden voyage off French Guiana, on June 4,
1996; and the sinking of the Sleipner A offshore platform in
Gandsfjorden near Stavanger, Norway, on August 23, 1991) can be seen at
https://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~mignotte/IFT2425/Disasters.html
Interval Analysis is a field of numerical analysis where the basic
elements of the calculations are intervals of real numbers. With the use
of directed rounding, we can automatically encapsulate the true
solution in intervals. Interval Analysis allows to create algorithms which
use set theoretic existence theorems; in this way, not only it is possible
to design interval algorithms able to solve difficult problems but also
they are able to prove the existence and uniqueness of the theoretic
solutions that they compute enclosures of (these algorithms are called
"Self Validating Algorithms").
Interval Analysis has been applied to different problems, such as:
linear and nonlinear systems, global optimization, constraint
propagation, fuzzy logic, economic input-output models, quality control
in manufacturing design, quantum mechanics, medical expert systems and
others.
