At the I. Vekua Institute of Applied mathematics 6 scientific projects (grants) supported by
Shota Rustaveli National Scientific Foundation have been carried out. Besides that, on the basis
of contracts 36 researchers have been working over individual scientific projects in the four
scientific directions: Mathematical problems of the mechanics of continua and related problems
of the analysis; Mathematical modelling and numerical mathematics; Discrete mathematics and
theory of algorithms; Probability Theory and Statistics.
The results of scientific research are presented in 64 works, among them 44 have been
published in journals with impact factor, and 20 in reviewed scientific journals.
Besides, two following monographs have been published:
1.

v.12, 2011
7 scientific meetings have been organized by VIAM where 21 scientists from abroad took part.
At the same time, the members of VIAM were participating in 28 scientific forums in Georgia
and abroad.
6 PhD students of TSU and 2 students of GTU (Georgian Technical University) have been
working over their PhD theses and 5 students of TSU – over their master’s degree under the
guidance of scientists, working in VIAM. Two of them (one from TSU and the other from

Since1998 according to the agreement regulating direct cultural and scientific cooperation
between Rome University "La Sapienza" and Iv. Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University joint
scientific research is carried out by Department of Mathematics “G. Castelnuovo” and I.
Vekua Institute of Applied Mathematics.
In 2010-2011 468 under graduate students of the Faculty of Exact and Natural Sciences of
TSU realized their laboratory tasks in three scientific laboratories of VIAM TSU.
The Tbilisi international Centre of Mathematics and Informatics (TICMI) is functioning at
VIAM. The scientific-organizational report of TICMI can be found in Bull TICMI, v. 15, 2011
(http://www.viam.science.tsu.ge/others/ticmi/blt/bulletin.htm).
At the competition, announced by SRNSF 3 projects were financed in 2011: one projected in
applied sciences (Leader: N. Khomasuridze), a project in “State Grants for Joint research
activities with foreign scientists originated from Georgia” (Leaders T. Kutsia (Austria),
T.Jangveladze (Georgia)), the joint grant within the framework of the bilateral agreement
between CNR (Italy) and SRNSF (Georgia) (Georgian Team Leader G. Jaiani).
In addition a project submitted by the Institute for training abroad of young scientists was
financed by SRNSF.
