Several years ago, David Zmiaikou obtained his Ph.D. degree at the University Paris-Sud (Orsay) under the supervision of Professor Jean-Christophe Yoccoz. After that, he visited the mathematical institute IMPA in Rio de Janeiro thanks to the Balzan research project of Professor Jacob Palis. As a part of David's European Post-Doctoral Institute (EPDI) fellowship, he worked at:
- Erwin Schrödinger Institute for Mathematical Physics, Vienna, Austria;
- Institute for Mathematical Research, Zürich, Switzerland;
- Institut des Hautes Etudes Scientifiques, Bures-sur Yvette, France;
- Max Planck Institute for Mathematics Bonn, Germany.
Afterwards, David did postdoctoral research in DNA analysis at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in the United Kingdom.
The main objective of the module is to learn basic techniques of solving equations and inequalities.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
ABOUT DAVID
HARBOUR.SPACE
This module will concentrate on solving equations and inequalities. Topics covered will include the following types of equations and inequalities: linear, quadratic, rational, involving absolute value and radicals. Important facts and powerful problem solving approaches will be highlighted. The course will be structured to inspire the students to explore and develop new ideas. Applications and modeling will also be demonstrated.
