Edvin Martinson

Edvin Martinson

PhD student at the Division of Applied Mathematics and Statistics

My research is within mathematical physics and general relativity. Specifically, I am interested in properties of solutions to the Einstein field equations with different matter models, such as the Vlasov or Dirac models, which originate in kinetic and quantum theory respectively. In my master thesis, I investigated cosmic censorship in the Einstein-Vlasov system and I hope to continue this work during my PhD.

Anthony Mäkelä

Anthony Mäkelä

PhD student at the Division of Algebra and Geometry

I'm interested in the interaction between derived categories and complex/algebraic geometry. More specifically in stability conditions, such as Bridgeland stability and K-stability.

Gabriel Abánades Joglar

Gabriel Abánades Joglar

PhD student at the Division of Algebra and Geometry

I am a PhD student woeking with Prof. Eriksson and Prof. Johansson. I am broadly interested in algebraic geometry, specially in the interplay of arithmetic techniques and complex geometry. I like using tools from homological algebra to study geometric problems. More precisely I have been thinking about Polarized Variatios of Hodge Structures and how they can help us understand a degenerating family of varieties.

Georg Kyhn

Georg Kyhn

PhD student at the Division of Applied Mathematics and Statistics

My research interests include partial differential equations, inverse problems and numerical integration. My PhD project will focuse on developing globally convergent iterative methods for solving coefficient inverse problems. Such algorithms can be used, in particular, for the reconstruction of the electric permittivity and permeability of tissue in order to detect malignant melanoma.

Fabio Francesconi

Fabio Francesconi

PhD student at the Division of Analysis and Probability Theory

My research focuses on geometric analysis and partial differential equations, with particular emphasis on spectral geometry, and geometric invariants. I’m also interested in Q-curvature and in the analytical and geometric structures that arise in conformal geometry, as well as in applications of geometric analysis to both mathematics and physics.

Eugen Bronasco

Eugen Bronasco

Postdoctor at the Division of Applied Mathematics and Statistics

I am interested in numerical integrators for ordinary and stochastic differential equations (ODEs and SDEs), as well as in sampling the invariant measure of Langevin dynamics. My focus lies in the combinatorial and algebraic structures underlying these methods. In particular, I study the algebraic structures of Butcher series, including the associated Hopf and pre-Lie algebras on trees.

Simon Leo Rydin Myerson

Simon Leo Rydin Myerson

Assistant Professor at the Division of Algebra and Geometry

My research is in analytic number theory and harmonic analysis. I am particularly interested in Diophantine equations, and in the application of ideas from number theory to the analysis of PDE. I work especially with the circle method, exponential sums, real analysis, and elementary methods. Sometimes I can add a pinch of decoupling, sieve theory or algebraic geometry.

Before joining Chalmers I was a Warwick Zeeman Lecturer at the University of Warwick.

David Olsson

PhD student at the Division of Analysis and Probability Theory

My PhD project concerns integrable systems, which are certain dynamical systems that are analytically solvable due to their high degree of symmetry. They are, for example, used to describe the quantum harmonic oscillator, the two-body problem, as well as the interaction between stable wave packets known as solitons. Under the supervision of Martin Hallnäs, I will study integrable many-particle systems of Calogero-Moser type.

Before enrolling as a PhD student at Chalmers I studied physics and mathematics at the University of Gothenburg. In my master’s thesis I examined so called quaternionic modular forms through the lens of Eisenstein series on the Lie group SU(2,1).

Mizanur Rahaman

Mizanur Rahaman

Assistant Professor at the Division of Analysis and Probability Theory

My research is broadly based on the mathematical foundation of Quantum Information Theory (QIT) and focuses on applying ideas from operator algebras and functional analysis to explore fundamental concepts in quantum theory such as quantum nonlocality, entanglement theory, Shannon theory, and Quantum Markov Semigroups.

Before joining Chalmers, I was a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellow at ENS de Lyon, France. I obtained my Ph.D at the University of Regina, Canada and worked as a postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Waterloo where I was an affiliated member at the Institute for Quantum Computing.

Johan Wärnegård

Johan Wärnegård

Postdoctor at the Division of Applied Mathematics and Statistics

My research currently focuses on two areas at the intersection of mathematical physics and numerical analysis. I investigate numerical methods for solving nonlinear Schrödinger equations in order to better understand quantum mechanical phenomena like polaritons and Bose-Einstein condensates. Additionally, I work on developing the general theory of numerical homogenization of partial differential equations. Until recently, I conducted this research as a member of the CM3 group at Columbia University. My research is supported by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation.
