Profile
My research interest lies in computational algebra, so called ``computer algebra", i.e., the theory and application of algebraic and symbolic computation. We investigate efficient algorithms of computer algebra in order to develop new methodologies to resolve various kinds of issues in science, engineering, and industry. Our research results have been implemented as some tools for practical engineering and industrial applications, where the applications range from system and control theory to physics and biology. In particular, our current focus is on "Monozukuri (manufacturing)". We have been developing new simulation techniques based on algebraic computations (including the joint use of numerical computations) and moreover advanced Monozukuri methodologies (e.g., systematic design and verification methods) utilizing these simulation techniques. Our aim is to establish a new paradigm of Monozukuri through building a new system and control theory based on mathematics. As an effective and promising method, we focus on constraint solving/optimization problems based on symbolic and algebraic computation, and we are trying to develop efficient computational algorithms. Specifically, our research includes methods using Quantifier Elimination (QE) and Groebner Bases (GB), which are algebraic algorithms based on theories of algebraic geometry and real algebraic geometry. However, to realize a practically effective method using the QE algorithm, the method must be sped up. For the purpose, we have been developing innovative optimization methods based on symbolic-numeric computation by combining it with numerical optimization methods. We strive to discover mathematical principles in these activities, including practical applications, such as Monozukuri, so that we can find their synergy to applied (computational) mathematics. Then we also aim at creating new mathematical principles necessary for practical applications and conducting research which generates innovative mathematical concepts and theoretical development.

    Simulation is an indispensable technology for improving efficiency in manufacturing and for raising the qualities of products. This project aims at constructing a symbolic-numeric hybrid computation platform for robust optimization by integrating algebraic algorithms based on symbolic computation with numerical methods/computation. It enables us to resolve nonlinear/nonconvex optimization problems precisely and efficiently. This project is expected to be an innovative attempt to establish a new practical paradigm for scientific computing.
