Research

Alexei Shadrin is a Lecturer at DAMTP and a member of the Numerical Analysis and Computational Mathematics Group therein. His area of interests lies within Approximation Theory and includes, more specifically, various aspects of spline and polynomial interpolation, shape-preserving approximation, Markov- and Landau-Kolmogorov-type inequalities between derivatives (which are, in short, the problems of numerical differentiation). His current research topics are Karlin's conjecture, Zolotarev polynomials and exact constants in the Jackson-Stechkin-type inequalities.
