RESEARCH EXPERIENCE:

• Clifford Analysis;

• Umbral Calculus;

• Numerical Analysis for PDE’s with special emphasis on Navier-Stokes equations and Schroedinger equations;

• Interplay between Combinatorics and Quantum Mechanics;

• Interplay between Discrete Differential Geometry, Algebraic Topology and Geometric Integration Theory;

• Development of numerical schemes based on Wavelet analysis and function-theoretical approaches;

• Development and implementation of numerical algorithms based on the Hilbert-Huang transform.

A goal-oriented description of my research experience can be found on the link above entitled Previous research track record.

CURRENT INTERESTS OF RESEARCH:

• Time-frequency analysis;
  

• Clifford analysis and Harmonic Analysis on the phase space and related topics;

• Maxwell and Magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) equations;

• Non-commutative geometry;

I hope to put soon on the link above entitled Prospective Research a short state of art for each topic.
