I am a specialist in scientific computing, mathematical modelling and data analysis. My major topics of research are numerical investigation of phenomena with differential equations and studies of the evolution of open stochastic dynamical systems of diverse nature.
My professional activities on the first subject include the development of highly accurate computational methods (involving those designed for high-performance computing) that ensure physical fidelity to the numerical solutions and are applicable in domains of irregular shape, the development of computationally cheap and flexible artificial boundary conditions, simulation of various qualitative regimes of evolution of complex nonlinear dynamical systems, among others.
The second subject implies the development of time series analysis methods aimed at detecting various mechanisms of the transition of dynamical systems to critical states, the search for quantitative precursors of catastrophes, studies of self-organisation, chaos and disorder in complex systems and related issues.
As of February 2026 I have over 70 publications in regular journals, collection volumes, conference proceedings, etc. The full list of publications is annexed to the academic Curriculum Vitae. You will find my e-mail addresses in the CV, while here are my professional profiles on Web of Science, Scopus and ORCID. You can send me a message via LinkedIn as well. Portfolios of some of the R&D projects that I have participated in can be found on the website of the consultancy Sceptica Scientific.
