Background

About Gleb Polevoy

Mathematics is the language of nature, Galilei wrote. Multiple aspects of scientific discourse benefit from mathematical treatment, because mathematics is, broadly speaking, precise reasoning. Driven by curiosity, I am eager to study and improve technology and society with informatics and mathematics, and also to advance these sciences for themselves. In particular, I am interested in game theory, preference aggregation theory, algorithms, logic, combinatorics, graph theory, and several areas of AI. My academic experience has advanced my inventive scientific thinking, while the algorithms engineering experience helps obtaining a ``holistic’’ view on a technical system. I have conducted theoretical and simulation research on various approximation and precise algorithms, heuristics, and non-cooperative game theory. I focus on fundamental algorithmic game theory, modelling topics such as what a stable situation is, which knowledge it requires from the participants, and how one can motivate a transition from an undesirable to a socially preferable stable state.
