Research Interests

My main research interests lie in the calculus of variations and nonlinear partial differential equations -- focusing on problems stemming from the materials science. I have been particularly interested in the analysis of variational problems related to self-assembly of diblock copolymers and magnetic domain formation in type-1 superconductors and ferromagnets.
