Remy Kassem

I am a PhD candidate in applied mathematics at Columbia University. My advisor is Michael I. Weinstein. I also work closely with Amir Sagiv from NJIT. 

I work in the areas of applied mathematics, mathematical physics, partial differential equations, and harmonic analysis, where I combine analytical methods with a computational approach to study physical phenomena

My PhD research is on the effect that time-periodic parametric forcing has on energy localization in the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model. The study of this involves obtaining decay estimates of oscillatory integrals using techniques from harmonic analysis. 

I graduated from Duke University in May 2020 with a B.S. in Mathematics. While there, I worked on problems in probability with Rick Durrett and Matthew Junge. I also did a senior thesis project on inverse problems related to cryo-EM with Xiuyuan Cheng
