Research Interests

• set-valued numerical analysis (set-valued interpolation, set-valued quadrature, approximation of reachable sets, selections of set-valued maps, set-valued fixed point problems)
• optimal control (direct discretization methods, convergence order for the approximation of trajectories and controls)
• nonsmooth analysis (nonconvex subdifferentials, optimality conditions)
• control theory (Lyapunov functions, asymptotic stability, impulsive systems)
