Differential Geometry and Geometric Analysis
The broad area of my research is geometric analysis, which deals with various partial differential equations that arise in geometry. I am particularly interested in the prescribed Ricci curvature equation and the Einstein equation.
Since these partial differential equations are often exceedingly difficult to study, my research focuses on cases where the underlying geometry enjoys certain symmetries and the equations simplify.
Specifically, I consider homogeneous and cohomogeneity one spaces, on which the equations reduce to systems of algebraic equations and ordinary differential equations respectively.
