CV (May, 2008)

Research Interests: My primary scientific interests are in broad areas of strongly correlated systems, nanomagnetism, and mesoscopic physics. During the course of my research I have used both analytical and numerical techniques. The majority of my work either has built on observations made in recent experiments or predicts new phenomena that are feasibly observable in the near future.

Projects in nonequilibrium strongly correlated systems:

- current mediated spin-torque effects in magnetic nanostructures;

- nonequilibrium phase transitions in low dimensional systems (e.g., graphene) coupled to reservoirs


Projects in nanomagnetism:

- dissipative dynamics of composite domain walls in magnetic nanostrips;

- skyrmions and other topological defects in magnetic nanostructures;

- stripes and hysteresis in thin ferromagnetic films


Projects in mesoscopic physics:

- decay of metastable current states in resonant-tunneling heterostructures
