Yinyu Ye
Yinyu Ye (* 1948 ) is a Chinese-born American mathematician who specializes in mathematical optimization and operations research .
Ye studied at the University of Science and Technology Central China with a bachelor's degree in 1982 and at Stanford University with a master's degree in 1983 and a doctorate with Edison Tack-Shuen Tse and George Dantzig in 1988 (Interior Algorithms for Linear, Quadratic, and Linearly Constrained Convex Programming). He was Assistant Professor from 1988 and Associate Professor from 1990 at the University of Iowa and has been Professor at Stanford University for Management Science and Engineering since 1993. He is also an adjunct professor at Fudan University and the Institute of Applied Mathematics of the Beijing Academy of Sciences.
He is known for his work on interior point methods in convex optimization. He also deals with semidefinite programming, for example in the design of sensor networks and complexity-theoretical results in mathematical economics. He is one of the developers of the Mahdian Ye Zhang algorithm in the facility location .
He was visiting professor at Tsinghua University and holds an honorary professorship at Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
In 2009 he received the John von Neumann Theory Prize . He is an INFORMS Fellow.
