My research develops mathematical theory for analysis and control of partial differential equations. The main focus is on deep and detailed analysis of challenging models arising from real-world applications.
Welcome!
I am an Associate Professor in Mathematics and the leader of the Systems Theory Research Group at Tampere University, Finland.My research focuses on the following topics:
- Functional analysis
- Mathematical systems theory
- Analysis of partial differential equations
