Speaker Intro
My research mostly consists of using tools of analysis and numerical analysis to investigate and compute solutions of problems in optimal transport with “unusual” cost functions. Applications of the mathematical work include optics inverse problems, computational mesh generation, sampling, and optimal control. I completed my Ph.D. thesis on numerical methods for fully nonlinear elliptic PDEs arising in optimal transport in 2022 working under Brittany Hamfeldt at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. From 2022 to 2025 I worked as a postdoc at the University of Texas at Austin under the supervision of Richard Tsai. I joined BIMSA in late May, 2025.
