Regina S. Burachik

Regina Sandra Burachik is an Argentine^[1] mathematician who works on optimization and analysis (particularly: convex analysis, functional analysis and non-smooth analysis). Currently, she is a professor at the University of South Australia.^[2]

She earned her Ph.D. from the IMPA in 1995 under the supervision of Alfredo Noel Iusem (Generalized Proximal Point Method for the Variational Inequality Problem).^[3] In her thesis, she "introduced and analyzed solution methods for variational inequalities, the latter being a generalization of the convex constrained optimization problem."^[4]
