My research interests lie in harmonic analysis with emphasis on problems related to endpoint mapping properties and weighted estimates for operators arising in harmonic analysis such as square functions and certain classes of Fourier multiplier operators. I am also interested in classical and abstract Fourier analysis and in particular, in problems related to 'thin' spectral sets, such as Sidon sets.

I am mainly interested in problem coming from fluid dynamics, in particular in systems describing fluid-structure interaction  and on the study of asymptotic behaviours respect to some small parameters. Recently I have become interested in dissipative PDE in particular to existence result for cubic NLS with irregular initial data.

My research interests concern the analysis of PDEs of transport type with rough vector fields, with particular attention to the models deriving from Fluid Dynamics. I have mainly worked on selection, stability and control problems concerning this kind of equations, and recently I have begun to be interested in issues related to the Magnetohydrodynamic system.

I did my Ph.D. under the supervision of Prof. Juan Luis Vázquez at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. As a postdoc I have also been working at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (Norway). My research interests include but are not limited to theoretical and numerical aspects of nonlinear and nonlocal/local partial differential equations. Some of my current projects:

I work on Fourier analysis, mainly on weighted inequalities for several types of operators (maximal, singular integrals, fractional, Bochner-Riesz) and spaces (Lebesgue, mixed-norm, Morrey).

The project of my thesis was based on the interaction between the Talbot effect and Riemann's non-differentiable function, a rich and surprising relationship based on the Vortex Filament and Schrödinger equations. In particular, I am working on the description of the Talbot effect using the Helmholtz equation and on analytic and geometric features of Riemann's function. I am also investigating on the concept of intermittency and its implications to the above.

My research interests lie in the fields of nonlinear partial differential equations, calculus of variations and geometric measure theory, with a particular emphasis on the analysis of static and hydrodynamic theories of liquid crystals and free boundary problems in fluids and complex fluids. 

Dariusz Kosz

Former Postdoctoral researcher at BCAM

Subsequent position: Assistant Professor at Wrocław University of Science and Technology


The area of my research is harmonic analysis with the theory of maximal functions in the first place. During my PhD studies, I investigated the most important properties of the classical Hardy–Littlewood maximal operators associated with various (sometimes non-doubling) metric measure spaces. Among the mentioned properties are:

- a.e. finiteness (dichotomy property for maximal operators),

- general size estimates (strong, weak, and restricted weak type estimates; boundedness between two Lorentz spaces),

- dimension free estimates in the Euclidean setting (weak type (1,1) and strong type (p,p) inequalities),

- regularity (variation of the maximal function).

My recent projects concern the following topics:

- oscillation inequalities for Radon operators and their applications in ergodic theory,

- best constants in the weak and strong type inequalities for maximal operators associated with arbitrary ergodic systems,

- harmonic analysis on the infinite-dimensional torus.

Currently, I am also interested in the Szemerédi-type theorems for polynomial progressions.

My research mainly involves topics related to numerical methods of PDE and Schrödinger-type equations. For my PhD thesis, I worked on the vortex filament equation addressing it both theoretically and numerically in different geometrical settings, whereas my MSc thesis was based on mathematical modelling of a biological problem using a coupled reaction-diffusion system. Currently, I am also interested in wavelet-based methods to understand multifractals.

My research interest is mainly about nonlinear partial differential equations in mathematical physics. In particular, I focus on the results about global existence, regularity and convergence in kinetic equations of statistical physics (Boltzmann, Landau equation) and fluid mechanics (Navier-Stokes, Prandtl equation).

Sascha Lill

Former PhD student at Tübingen and BCAM

My Focus lies on investigating quantum dynamics with particle creation and annihilation. Since the start of my PhD in 2018, I am investigating new methods for non-perturbative renormalization, that is, making sense of Hamiltonians from Physics with particle creation and annihilation, that are a priori ill-defined.

My research interests are mostly focused on the interplay of Harmonic Analysis, Partial Differential Equations and Geometric Measure Theory.

In particular, I have been studying the connection of singular integral operators with rectifiability and uniform rectifiability, with applications to elliptic measure.

More recently, I have been investigating geometric problems in the context of Parabolic PDEs.

My research deals with the problems from nonlinear partial differential equations relating to fluid mechanics, control theory and liquid crystals.
