Yasuo Yoshinobu, Professor
0 student voices
Professor Yoshinobu of the Foundations of Mathematical Informatics group studies foundations of mathematics, in particular axiomatic set theory. Set theory takes as its starting point the fact that infinite sizes (cardinalities) come in many kinds, and seeks to clarify their combinatorial properties. Professor Yoshinobu is interested in using large cardinal axioms to classify infinitary combinatorial statements of set theory by the yardstick of consistency strength. On Professor Yoshinobu's page, it is stated that anyone wishing to specialize in this field needs to be thoroughly familiar with the logical and abstract way of thinking in mathematics.
Hirotaka Ono, Professor

Ono Lab conducts research centered on combinatorial optimization, in the area surrounding theoretical computer science and operations research. The lab is part of the Department of Mathematical Informatics, Graduate School of Informatics, Nagoya University, and belongs to the Foundations of Mathematical Informatics group. At the undergraduate level, it corresponds to the Mathematical Informatics course of the Department of Natural Informatics, School of Informatics. The research areas listed for the faculty member are theory of algorithms, computational complexity, approximation algorithms, and parameterized algorithms. From 2010 through fiscal 2016, the lab was active at the Faculty of Economics, Graduate School of Economics, Kyushu University, and since fiscal 2017 it has been active at the Graduate School of Informatics, Nagoya University.
Junya Satou, Associate Professor
0 student voices
Associate Professor Satou of the Foundations of Mathematical Informatics group studies algebraic number theory. The research topic is "the theory of cyclotomic fields and the study of Bernoulli numbers." Regarding class numbers, an important concept in number theory, the page explains that for cyclotomic fields, Iwasawa theory is known as the underlying theory. As one approach to Bernoulli numbers, the page introduces a technique called the q-analogue. Associate Professor Satou is also interested in applying combinatorial methods to number theory, and in cryptography.

The Yagiura Lab is part of the Department of Mathematical Informatics, Graduate School of Informatics, Nagoya University, and studies topics such as combinatorial optimization and metaheuristics. At the undergraduate level, the lab is in charge of the Mathematical Informatics track of the Department of Natural Informatics, School of Informatics. Together with the Ono Lab, it forms the Optimization Algorithms Group and holds seminars and other activities. The lab's video introducing its research results covers the rectangle packing problem and the vehicle routing problem with time windows.
Harumichi Nishimura, Professor

This lab studies quantum computation, which uses quantum mechanics as its computational principle, from the viewpoint of computational complexity theory. Its main research subject is quantum computational complexity theory, and it also studies the neighboring fields of quantum information and computational complexity theory. The lab's website presents results from around 2012 to 2015 on quantum NP, quantum interactive proofs, and quantum algorithms.

Associate Professor Yota Odate studies graph algorithms and algorithmic graph theory in the Mathematical Information Modeling Lab. The lab is part of the Department of Mathematical Informatics, Graduate School of Informatics, Nagoya University. The listed research areas also include fixed-parameter tractability and exact exponential-time algorithms. The website lists accepted papers and paper awards.
Shogo Tanimura, Professor
0 student voices
Professor Shogo Tanimura studies quantum foundations, which clarifies the basis on which quantum theory stands, in the Multi-Degree-of-Freedom Systems Informatics Lab. Using Bell's inequalities, uncertainty relations, quantum measurement theory, and related topics, the lab examines the relationship between quantum theory and classical mechanics and thermodynamics, and works to identify the limits of quantum theory. The lab also studies dynamical systems theory for both quantum and classical systems, aiming to tackle problems in theoretical physics by making use of geometric perspectives and methodologies. Prof. Tanimura asks that students who wish to join the lab have at least an understanding of linear algebra and calculus, and notes that understanding quantum mechanics makes it easier to carry out research.
Kei Tokita, Professor
0 student voices
The Tokita Lab studies how to understand and control "complex systems", in which many interacting elements cause the whole to behave in complex ways, using methods from mathematics and physics. The subjects include ecosystems, metabolic systems inside cells, the immune system, biopolymers, neural networks and deep learning, combinatorial optimization problems, information systems, economic systems, and social systems. The lab uses methods such as nonlinear dynamics, statistical physics, and computational physics. The lab regards seemingly unrelated problems as mathematically close, in that they are phenomena that appear when many simple components interact in complex ways.
Yasuyuki Nakamura, Professor
0 student voices
The Nakamura Lab analyzes data on learning behavior, such as learning data from STACK, an automated grading system for mathematical-expression answers, with the aim of understanding how learners come to understand. The lab also analyzes note data and eye-tracking data recorded while learners solve problems. The lab belongs to the Institute of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and carries out education and research in collaboration with the lab of the Multi-Degree-of-Freedom Systems Informatics Group, Department of Complex Systems Science, Graduate School of Informatics. The lab hopes to be a place where faculty and students feel a sense of unity, like a family.
