Research Interests:
I am a mathematician working in the interplay between probability and analysis. I particularly enjoy and appreciate the deeper intrinsic connections among different mathematical areas.
My research interests are within the scope of stochastic analysis, rough path theory and their applications, including (but not restricted to):
- Rough paths, the signature transform
- Stochastic/Rough differential equations, diffusion processes
- Gaussian processes, the Malliavin calculus
- Stochastic analysis on manifolds
