Yboon Victoria García Ramos is a Peruvian mathematician with a Ph.D. from the Université des Antilles et de la Guyane and the National University of Engineering.[1][2] Her research focus lies in applied mathematics, mathematical economics, and nonlinear analysis.[3][4][5] She currently serves as a Full Professor and researcher at Universidad del Pacífico.[6] In 2019, she was awarded the “Sofia Kovalevskaya Prize: Outstanding Senior Peruvian Woman Researcher in Mathematics.”[4][5]
Education
[edit]Her interest in science led her to pursue a career in mathematics. She began her studies at the National University of Engineering where she continued until earning a Master's degree in Mathematics. She earned her Ph.D. at the Université des Antilles et de la Guyane and the National University of Engineering in operator theory.[7] She completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Center for Mathematical Modeling at the University of Chile.[6]
Career
[edit]García has academic expertise in applied mathematics, mathematical economics, and nonlinear analysis.[3][5] She has served as a thesis advisor for undergraduate students at UNI,[8] and is currently a researcher at the Institute of Mathematics and Related Sciences (Instituto de Matemática y Ciencias Afines, IMCA).[6] She is a member of both the Peruvian Mathematical Society and the Société mathématique de France.[6] In recognition of her contributions to science and technology, she has been accredited as a qualified researcher in RENACYT, the registry of Peruvian researchers .[9]
As coordinator of the Mathematics II course in the Department of Economics at Universidad del Pacífico, she has continued to foster mathematical education and research.[6]
Research and publications
[edit]Her research has significantly contributed to the study of monotone operators, quasiconvex optimization, and variational analysis, with applications in variational inequality problems and game theory.[8]
In 2003, García co-authored an article with the co-founder of IMCA titled "Applications of the Ky Fan Conjecture."[8] The paper presents Ky Fan's lemma as a tool for establishing existence results in various fields, including variational inequality problems, equilibrium problems, and game theory.
In 2014, she played a key role as the principal organizer of the Latin American Workshop on Optimization and Control. Previously, between 2011 and 2012, she served as the scientific lead of the Peruvian team in the Stic-Amsud OVIMINE project, further solidifying her impact in international research collaborations.[6]
In 2016, she published her first book, Cálculo Diferencial e Integral in collaboration with Oswaldo Velásquez.[8] It covers differential and integral calculus while also introducing fundamental mathematical concepts and their applications in economics and business science.
