Research Interests
My main mathematical interests are in the general area of nonlinear analysis. I am interested in both developing tools and methods, especially in the calculus of variations, and in applying such techniques to problems in partial differential equations (PDEs) and in dynamical systems. For PDEs, I have primarily studied the existence of solutions for nonlinear elliptic and hyperbolic equations; for dynamical systems, the existence of periodic solutions and connecting orbits.
