Research

My primary research area is nonlinear phenomena, an area that combines analysis, applied mathematics, and concrete physical applications.  My research activity mainly focuses on the inverse scattering transform for continuous and discrete nonlinear Schrödinger systems. I have also addressed issues of solvability for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, by identifying function spaces in which the direct and inverse problems are well posed.  I have co-authored a monograph on nonlinear Schrödinger systems. Over the past decade, I have worked and published on mathematical techniques for solving the initial value problem for nonlinear 2+1 dimensional PDEs with potentials that do not decay at spatial infinity.
