Research
Research Interests: Non-linear Partial
Differential Equations, Geometric Analysis and Calculus of Variations.
Special topics include:
1. Regularity
theory of harmonic maps, the harmonic map flow.
2. Yang-Mills
connections and the Yang-Mills flow in vector bundles over Riemannian
manifolds.
3. Analysis
on the Ericksen-Leslie system in liquid crystals.
4. Nonlinear
partial differential systems and geometric variational problems.
