Research interests
Over the years, I have worked with engineers, physicists and mathematicians and shared with them the excitement of doing research in each of the corresponding fields. I have developed an understanding of the needs and the challenges in these disciplines and this experience is for me a continuous source of inspiration. This diversified path has led me to the discovery of mathematical research and its interconnections with other pure and applied sciences. Then, applied mathematics emerges not only as a discipline that applies mathematical concepts to other fields, but also as an area in which other fields of science serve as a continuous inspiration to develop new exciting directions in mathematical research - this two-way vision is precisely where my research stands. Over the last ten years, I have been working on geometric approaches to the formulation of nonlinear multi-physics models systems with multiple scales. Applications include complex fluids, plasma physics and quantum molecular dynamics.

Specific interests include: Momentum maps and reduction by symmetry; applications of symplectic and Poisson geometry; Hamiltonian and Lagrangian techniques in nonlinear dynamics; multi-physics modelling of nonlinear multiscale dynamics; nonlinear modelling of magnetized plasmas; liquid crystals and fluids with internal structure; nonlocal dynamics of aggregation and self-assembly; phase-space methods in classical and quantum mechanics; mixed classical-quantum dynamics and applications in chemistry.
