Research Interests

Mixing image Mixing image

I use tools from partial differential equations and probability to study a variety of problems. A few topics of current interest are:

  • The interaction between mixing and diffusion
  • High dimensional sampling problems

Other topics I've worked on recently include anomalous diffusion, anomalous dissipation, Boseβ€”Einstein condensation, coagulation, fluid mechanics, homogenization, the Kompaneets equation, mixing, Q-tensors, and residual diffusion.
