Dr Chibueze Okeke is a Lecturer in School of Mathematics at the University of the Witwatersrand. He obtained his BSc Honours in Mathematics at the University of Nigeria Nsukka and Masters in Pure and Applied Mathematics at the African University of Science and Technology Abuja Nigeria. He also obtained his PhD in Pure Mathematics (Functional Analysis) at the department of Mathematics University of Kwazulu-Natal Westville campus Durban South Africa.

Chibueze mathematical research is generally in applied functional analysis with a focus on optimization and fixed-point problems in spaces like Hilbert, Banach and Hadamard spaces. The optimization problems that am particularly interested in, includes variational inequalities, minimization problems, equilibrium problems, monotone inclusion, and split inverse problems. These problems are known to be very useful in diverse fields such as engineering, ecology, biology, physics, economics, among others. Moreover, they provide a simple, natural, and unified framework for a general treatment of many important problems within and outside mathematics. My interest lies in the study of these problems, as well as in the development and construction of efficient iterative methods for solving them.
