Research
I am interested in mathematical physics and nonlinear phenomena. In particular, I am interested in semiconductor laser theory, nonlinear and fiber optics, surface water waves, acoustic waves and gas lasers. Although these topics are seemingly disconnected and have quite different physical nature, they all can be viewed as complex systems composed out of interacting particles or waves. There is a general theoretical framework for their description, called weak turbulence theory. I am trying to both further develop weak turbulence theory and to use these developments to study such complex systems.
