Justin Valletta

I am a PhD candidate in Applied Mathematics at Florida State University working under Martin Bauer. I received my M.S. in Mathematics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2019 (while in a Biophysics PhD program). Before that, I obtained a B.S. in Chemistry and a B.A. in Philosophy in 2016 from the University of Florida.

Interests: I am interested in using tools from functional analysis and differential geometry to study PDEs arising from physics. In particular, I am interested in fluid dynamics, geometric mechanics, and general relativity.

"Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty -- a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of painting or music, yet sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show. The true spirit of delight, the exaltation, the sense of being more than Man, which is the touchstone of the highest excellence, is to be found in mathematics as surely as in poetry." -- Bertrand Russell
