CU’s Dr. Ioannis Argyros co-authors mathematics textbook; research provided by math students




Cameron University’s Dr. Ioannis Argyros, professor of mathematics, is the co-author of “Contemporary Algorithms: Theory and Applications Volume IV,” a new edition to the Mathematics Research Developments Series published by Nova Science Publishers. Argyros wrote the textbook with Dr. Santhosh George, professor of mathematical and computational sciences at the National Institute of Technology in Karnataka, India.

Researchers on the project included CU alumni Gus Argyros, Lawton, and Samundra Regmi, Houston, Texas, who undertook the research while undergraduate students. Gus Argyros, who earned an Associate in Applied Science degree in information technology and a Bachelor of Science degree in computer science in 2021, is a data analyst for the federal government. Regmi, who graduated in 2019 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in mathematics and a Bachelor of Science degree in computer science, is a teaching assistant in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Houston, where he is pursuing a doctorate degree.

The book provides different avenues to study algorithms and also brings new techniques and methodologies to problem-solving in computational sciences, engineering, scientific computing and medicine (imaging, radiation therapy). A plethora of algorithms which are universally applicable is presented in a sound analytical way. The chapters are written independently of each other, so they can be understood without reading earlier chapters. Some knowledge of analysis and linear algebra as well as some computing experience is recommended.

The organization and content of the book cater to senior undergraduates, graduate students, researchers, practitioners, professionals and academicians in the aforementioned disciplines. It can also be used as a reference book and includes numerous references and open problems.

Argyros joined the CU faculty in 1990. His research interests include applied mathematics, operator theory, computational mathematics and iterative methods especially on Banach spaces. Argyros has published more than 1600 peer-reviewed papers, 33 books and 19 chapters in books about computational mathematics. He is the recipient of the 2001 Distinguished Research Award from the Southwest Oklahoma Advanced Technology Association and is a member of the editorial board for peer-reviewed journals including Applied Mathematics and Computation, the American Journal of Computational Mathematics and other peer-reviewed journals.
