Dr Dimitris Chiotis

Lecturer in Pure Mathematics

Background

Introduction


Welcome to my page! I am a Lecturer in Pure Mathematics at the School of Mathematics, Statistics and Physics.


I hold a PhD in Mathematical Analysis from Newcastle University. My thesis titled "Superoptimal analytic approximation and exterior products" introduces an innovative approach for the calculation of superoptimal analytic approximants of continuous matrix-valued functions, an approach that is based on pointwise wedge (or exterior) products of Hilbert spaces and operators. The PhD thesis was supervised by Dr Lykova, Professor Young and Dr Kimsey.


I also hold an MSc in Pure Mathematics and a BSc in Mathematics from the University of the Aegean in Samos, Greece.


Additionally, I am an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
