Email: patron@g.jct.ac.il Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.co.il/citations?user=dcFPGFgAAAAJ&hl=iw My current research is related to the combination of robustness of random networks (random graphs) theory with the optimization issue, i.e. minimum-maximum problems. The main purpose of the research is to find optimal methods for dismantling or strengthening structures of random networks, considering constraints imposed on these processes. Constraints here mean limiting the cost of nodes (vertices) activation or removal processes. Examples of these are: maximum network's connectivity during a network's nodes removal event, limited resources for dismantling a random network structure, etc. For this purpose, I use the tools of the complex networks and random graphs theory, the percolation theory and some tools of algorithms for analyzing minimummaximum problems.
