Current Teaching:
I am not teaching this semester
Research Interests:
Currently I am mostly interested in the interplay of dynamical
and probabilistic methods in studying dynamical systems.
In particular ergodic theory and statistical properties of
deterministic systems, KAM theory, bifurcation theory,
singular perturbations, and
probabilistic limit theorems for and random perturbations of
deterministic dynamical systems, as well as random dynamical
systems in general.
My research mainly focuses on billiards and applications
to statistical mechanics, as well as partial differential equations and
pattern formation.
There are also occasions where I find numerical simulations extremely
helpful to get more insight to a problem.
A picture gallery I created while studying a
problem related to the Boltzmann equation is available
here.
