1. APPLIED ANALYSIS RESEARCH GROUP (AARG)

1. Introduction

The Applied Analysis Research Group (AARG) was established by Ton Duc Thang University (TDTU) in 2015 with the goal of researching in the field of analytic math theory and applying analytic mathematics to solve real-world problems. AARG studies mathematical problems arising from the physical, chemical, geophysical, biophysical, and materials sciences. These problems are often described by time-dependent integral or ordinary partial differential equations, along with complex boundary conditions and external forces. Research results will be published in reputable international journals in Scopus/WoS.

2. Mission and vision

- Strengthening TDTU's international publications in prestigious journals under Scopus/WoS categories.

- Connection and cooperation between domestic and foreign researchers.

- In addition, this research group is a part of the Faculty of Mathematics and Statistics (TDTU) to develop and strengthen scientific research on the quality of articles, training and number of researchers.
