Andrica

​Dorin Andrica has obtained a PhD in Pure Mathematics in 1992 with a thesis on critical point theory with applications to the geometry of differentiable submanifolds. Currently, his interests are in differential topology (critical point theory with applications, Morse theory with applications), differential geometry, geometry, Lie groups and Lie algebras with applications in geometric mechanics, number theory, discrete mathematics, didactics of mathematics, mathematical olympiad and contests.
Ovidiu Bagdasar has obtained a PhD in Applied Mathematics from the University of Nottingham in 2011. Since then he joined the University of Derby and has been working on recurrent sequences in the complex plane. For this work he obtained a PhD in Pure Mathematics from the Babes-Bolyai University of Cluj Napoca. His interests include the geometry of recurrent sequences in the complex plane, number theory, combinatorics, and computational mathematics. While at Derby, he authored a book based on the Computational Mathematics module delivered at Derby, which was published under SpringerBriefs. Ovidiu authored more than 10 papers on topics related to complex recurrent sequences and presented his research within various scientific events.
