Michel DE LARA
I am doing research at CERMICS, applied mathematics center
of École des Ponts ParisTech, itself part of
Université Paris-Est.
At CERMICS, I am responsible for the Optimization and systems
team, the main interest of which is in designing numerical
variational methods for stochastic control problems for the management
of energies.
My specific interest centers are in different applications of mathematics,
with a special and strong emphasis on
quantitative methods for the sustainable management of natural
resources.
For this, I have collaborations both with biologists and with
economists, in particular through different scientific networks
that I manage in France and abroad.
Since 2009, I am member of the
Economic Council for Sustainable Development, at the
invitation of the French Ministry of Sustainable Development.
Since 2007, I am associate editor of the journal
Environmental Modeling and Assessment.
My last publications have appeared in the journals
Mathematical Biosciences,
SIAM Journal on Optimization,
Ecological Modelling,
Journal of Economic Theory,
ICES Journal of Marine Science,
Transportation Science,
Theory and Decision,
Systems and Control Letters,
Journal of Mathematical Biology,
Annals of Operations Research,
Journal of Theoretical Biology.
Luc Doyen and I have published the book
Sustainable Management of Natural Resources. Mathematical Models
and Methods (2008) at Springer-Verlag.
We shall organize, from January 7 to April 5 in 2013, the
Institut Henri Poincaré IHP trimester
Mathematics of Bio-Economics as a contribution to
Mathematics of Planet Earth - MPE2013.

Optimization and viability methods applied to the management of natural
resources (fisheries, mines, renewable energies, biodiversity).
- Stochastic Optimization.
Effect of information patterns on optimal policies. Discretization
methods. Application to energies management under uncertainties and
environmental constraints.
- Mathematics and Ecology.
