In the Spring of 2012 I teach

  • Math 54: Linear Algebra and Differential Equations

  • Math 212: Several Complex Variables

    • In the Fall of 2004 and in the Spring of 2011 I enjoyed my two sabbatical semesters.

    The schedule of The Paris Nord-Berkeley Analysis Seminar can be found here.

    Information about journals with which I am affiliated can be found below.

  • Analysis & PDE

  • American Journal of Mathematics

  • Applied Mathematics Research eXpress

  • Methods and Applications of Analysis

    • I study mathematical aspects of quantum mechanics, more specifically scattering theory and microlocal analysis. CV.

    Some recent talks:

  • Fractal Weyl laws in chaotic scattering , RES04, January 2004.

  • Control theory and high energy eigenfunctions, (with Nicolas Burq), Forges-les-eaux, June 2004. Here is the short note for the proceedings.

  • Quantum decay rates in chaotic scattering (with Stéphane Nonnenmacher), AMS National Meeting, New Orleans, January 2007.

  • Quantum chaos in scattering theory Colloquium talks 2006/08 at First Joint CMS/SMM Meeting , Northwestern, Univ. of North Carolina, and Univ. of Washington.

  • Soliton Home Movies, a popular talk for prospective graduate students (a reasonably decent PDF viewer might be needed to see the movies)

  • A minicourse at The Summer Graduate Worskhop on Inverse Problems, July 2009: I, II, III, IV, V.

  • Two solitons in an external field, Colloque Franco-Tunisien d'EDP, Hammamet, 2009.

  • Mathematics of quantum resonances, The Joint BMC/BAMC Meeting of 2010.

  • Solitons in external fields, Séminaire EDP, Ecole Polytechnique/IHES, February 2011.

    Theory and computation of resonances in 1d scattering: David Bindel's website (still in progress and developing) with his easy-to-use MATLAB codes for computations of resonances.

    Lecture notes: Version 0.95 for an advanced graduate course on ''Semiclassical Analysis'' (written with L. C. Evans).

    NEW! Lecture notes on resonances preliminary version -- please beware.
