TANMOY SOM is Professor and former Head of the Department of Mathematical Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology (Banaras Hindu University), Varanasi, India. He completed his PhD from Institute of Technology, Banaras Hindu University, India, in 1986. He also has served as the Head of the Department of Mathematics at Assam Central University, Silchar. His research interests are in functional analysis, optimization and mathematical modelling, fuzzy set theory, soft computing and image processing. He has successfully guided more than 16 PhD students and published more than 100 papers and several book chapters in reputed national and international journals, proceedings and edited books. He has has authored several papers on metric fixed point theory, optimization modelling and recently on applied analysis, soft computing and fuzzy geometry.
He has completed a BRNS-BARC funded project titled "Fractional calculus approached solutions for two-dimensional ground water contaminations in unsaturated media" during 2014-18 jointly with Prof. S. Das of IIT (BHU). He is an editorial board member and reviewer of a few reputed journals including IEEE Transactions, American Mathematical Society, one of the volume editors of the book Mathematics and Computing: ICMC 2018, Varanasi, India, January 9-11 (Springer 2018). He has been Guest/Handling Editor of the International Journal of Forensic and Community Medicine. He has delivered several invited talks at national and international conferences, seminars, refresher courses, etc., and has organized three international events as organizing chair. He is the Vice-President of Calcutta Mathematical Society-one of the oldest mathematical societies in India. He has made short academic visits to Texas A&M University, Kingsville (2012), and the University of California, Berkeley (2016).
