I may supervise Bachelor's or Master's theses in the area of inverse problems, mathematical analysis, partial differential equations or differential geometry. Possible to accept students continuously.
I may supervise reading projects for Master's students (with applied mathematics major): Special Assignment in Computational Engineering 3 - 6 ECTS. Possible to accept students continuously.
I may supervise summer assistantships at LUT related to my research and teaching. The next call organized by the department will be in the winter 2026.
If you are interested in doctoral or post-doctoral research with me, please see more information from the page of our research team.
You may contact me on possible supervision by sending an email to jesse.railo@lut.fi.
One Master's and two Bachelor's theses under supervision at the moment.
Ella Salo: Limited angle Radon transform: theory and numerical study, Bachelor's thesis, LUT, 2025. Co-supervised with Shubham Jathar.
Jarmo Flander: Calderón problem for piecewise constant conductivities, Master's thesis, LUT, 2024.
Euclidean Spaces, 5 ECTS, period 1, 2026-2027. A first course on Euclidean topology and measure for undergraduate students.
Lectures on the fractional Calderón problems (based on the course 2021 in Zürich) will be uploaded here later. I know this takes long!
