Welcome
I am a junior research group leader at Institut for Analysis within the Department of Mathematics at KIT.
Please refer to my group's webpage for more details on its activities.
Further, I am a member of the collaborative research center CRC1173 Wave phenomena.
Research interests
My research primarily concerns the mathematical analysis of nonlinear PDEs arising in the description of (geo-)physical and quantum fluid flow, often related to the propagation and interaction of nonlinear waves.
Motivated by relevant physical applications, I am particularly interested in the study of coherent structures such as (quantised) vortices and vortex filaments.
The main results of my research concern the well- and ill-posedness of related equations, the hydrodynamic stability and the characterisation of relevant asymptotic dynamics.
The mathematical techniques I employ stem a.o. from Fourier Analysis and the theory for dispersive, hyperbolic and transport equations.
You can find a list of my publications on my google scholar, zbMath Open or arXiv profile.
Upcoming events
- Conference on Mathematics of Wave Phenomena, 24-28 February 2025. Together with Zihui He (Bielefeld University) and Tobias Schmid (EPF Lausanne), I am co-organizing the mini-symposium (In-)Stability, Dispersion and Weak Turbulence: From Fluid Flow to Hamiltonian Systems at the Conference on Mathematics for Wave Phenomena in Karlsruhe, click here for details.
- Mathematical Analysis Seminar, University of L'Aquila, May 2025, click here for details.
Short bio
Before joining KIT, I have been a post-doc fellow in the research group of Sebastian Herr at Bielefeld University where I conducted my research within the project A1 of the Collaborative Research Center 1283. Prior to that, I have been a post-doc fellow at the Institut Fourier, University of Grenoble Alpes, mentored by Thierry Gallay, Christophe Lacave and Evelyne Miot.
My PhD thesis completed at Gran Sasso Science Institute (2019) under the supervision of Paolo Antonelli and Pierangelo Marcati concerns the mathematical analysis of some hydrodynamic models describing quantum fluids and singular limits for these systems.
