Overview
My current research interests focus on mathematical fluid mechanics and mathematical biology.
In the past, I have also worked on reaction-diffusion equations and spectral theory of Schredinger operators.

The α-SQG patch problem is illposed in C2,β and W2,p
Journal Article Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics · April 1, 2025 We consider the patch problem for the (Formula presented.) -(surface quasi-geostrophic) SQG system with the values (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) being the 2D Euler and the SQG equations respectively. It is well-known that the Euler patches ... Full text Open Access CiteSuppression of chemotactic blowup by strong buoyancy in Stokes-Boussinesq flow with cold boundary
Journal Article Journal of Functional Analysis · October 1, 2024 In this paper, we show that the Keller-Segel equation equipped with zero Dirichlet Boundary condition and actively coupled to a Stokes-Boussinesq flow is globally well-posed provided that the coupling is sufficiently large. We will in fact show that the dy ... Full text Open Access CiteCHEMOTACTIC REACTION ENHANCEMENT IN ONE DIMENSION
Journal Article Communications in Mathematical Sciences · January 1, 2024 Chemotaxis, which involves the directed movement of cells in response to a chemical gradient, plays a crucial role in a broad variety of biological processes. Examples include bacterial motion, the development of single-cell or multicellular organisms, and ... Full text Open Access CiteRecent Grants
