Research

Fields of interest: I am interested in Nonlinear Elliptic Partial Differential Equations that appear in Mathematical Physics and Geometry. In my work the main tools for this study are variational methods, topological methods, and perturbation arguments. For instance, I have worked on the Stationary Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation (and other models alike) and the existence of semiclassical states. Moreover, I am involved in the application of variational methods to Liouville-type equations on compact surfaces that appear in Chern-Simons theory and Geometrical Analysis. Finally, I am also interested in semilinear elliptic problems under overdetermined boundary conditions and their relations with stationary solutions of the 2D Euler equations.

For a complete list of publications see below.

Some slides: The following slides give a good idea of my recent work and my current interests:

In 2020 I gave a conference at the online seminar "PDEs: España vs Italia".
In 2022 I gave a seminar at the OWPDE seminar, availabe in its Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwZPBpJ5gww&t=109s.
In 2023 I was visiting professor at the University of Rome I and I gave a conference in this institution.
In 2023 I gave a conference at the "Closing Workshop of the thematic semester in PDEs", held in Madrid.
