Kim Hyun-Min

Kim Hyun-Min is a mathematics topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Kim Hyun-Min rather than just read about it. In short: Kim Hyun-Min (Korean: 김현민; born March 20, 1966) is a professor in the department of mathematics at Pusan National University among other positions at the university. He has served as vice president of the Korean Mathematical Society; vice president of the Youngnam Mathematical Society; director of the Big Data-based Finance, Fisheries, and Manufacturing Innovation Industrial Mathematics Center; and the sixth preside…

Key takeaways

Kim Hyun-Min belongs to mathematics; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Kim Hyun-Min to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Kim Hyun-Min from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Kim Hyun-Min (Korean: 김현민; born March 20, 1966) is a professor in the department of mathematics at Pusan National University among other positions at the university. He has served as vice president of the Korean Mathematical Society; vice president of the Youngnam Mathematical Society; director of the Big Data-based Finance, Fisheries, and Manufacturing Innovation Industrial Mathematics Center; and the sixth president of the National Institute for Mathematical Sciences.

Education Kim majored in mathematics in the College of Natural Sciences at Pusan National University for his bachelor's and master's. He earned a second master's degree and a doctorate in mathematics specializing in numerical analysis and calculation at the Victoria University of Manchester.

Career His first position was as a post-doc in the department of mathematics at KAIST. Following that, he taught at Pusan National University and held positions at Kyungpook National University, Samsung Heavy Industries College of Engineering, and the Korean Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.

Research Kim's research is focused on developing algorithms for solving various types of nonlinear matrix equations.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Kim Hyun-Min

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Kim Hyun-Min claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In mathematics, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Kim Hyun-Min before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Kim Hyun-Min ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Kim Hyun-Min

In research: Kim Hyun-Min appears in mathematics research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Kim Hyun-Min in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Kim Hyun-Min is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1966 births, Academic staff of KAIST, Institute for Basic Science, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Kim Hyun-Min outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
