About Me

Welcome to my academic webpage!

I am an Assistant Professor (Professor Adjunto) at the Institute of Mathematics and Statistics (IME) of the Federal University of Goiás (UFG), Brazil, and a permanent faculty member of its Graduate Program in Mathematics. I currently serve as Research Coordinator of IME/UFG and hold a Research Productivity Fellowship from the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), Level C (PQ-C).

My research focuses on the qualitative theory of ordinary differential equations and dynamical systems, particularly piecewise smooth vector fields, limit cycles, bifurcation theory, geometric singular perturbation theory, and nonsmooth dynamical systems, with applications to physical and biological models.

I maintain active research collaborations with mathematicians from several Brazilian and international institutions, including USP, UNICAMP, UNESP, UNIFEI, and the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB). I am also a member of the TeQA Network of Dynamical Systems, a Brazilian research network dedicated to the qualitative theory of dynamical systems and its applications.

My research has received support from CNPq, FAPEG, and FUNAPE through competitive funding programs, including research productivity fellowships, research grants, and scientific mobility support.

LINES OF RESEARCH

My main research interests lie in the qualitative theory of differential equations and dynamical systems, with particular emphasis on:

• Piecewise smooth and nonsmooth dynamical systems;

• Limit cycles and bifurcation theory;

• Geometric singular perturbation theory and regularization;

• Sliding dynamics and Filippov systems;

• Hamiltonian systems;

• Minimal sets and chaotic dynamics;

• Applications to biological and physical models.
