| Research Interests:
My research lies broadly in physical applied
mathematics, aiming to describe phenomena across
length and time scales. In materials science I have focused
on aspects of epitaxial growth and nano-device modeling, including:
(1) continuum models for the morphological evolution of crystal
surfaces below roughening; and (2) effects of atomistic processes
on the mesoscopic and macroscopic behavior of crystal surfaces.
In statistical mechanics I work on a macroscopic
description of Bose-Einstein condensation of trapped
atoms beyond mean-field approaches. In quantum mechanics
I study aspects of quantum computing and decoherence related
to scattering, by which spatial variables are included
in transforming quantum states for computations. In fluid
mechanics I have studied growth phenomena in advection-diffusion
processes. In electromagnetic theory, my primary interests are
wave propagation near boundaries and scattering of electric
fields by cells. |
