Research Interests

My research interests lie in the area of analysis with specific emphasis on problems related to mathematical physics. Primarily, my research has focused on particle dynamics, both classical and quantum, in systems which arise naturally in the context of statistical mechanics. The questions I have considered address issues concerning three main topics: the evolution of a quantum particle in disordered media, the ground state properties of spin glass models, and the effects of interactions in multi-particle quantum spin systems.
