My research focuses on the numerical analysis of differential equations and the development of methods for simulating quantum and mixed quantum-classical dynamics. As part of my previous research activities, I have specialised in the following areas:

Research Areas

Splitting methods for differential equations

Focus on linear and non-linear Schrödinger equations

Geometric mechanics

Numerical methods derived from variational principles

Gaussian wave packets

Approximation of wave functions in space and time

Low-rank approximations

Tensor trains applied to high-dimensional quantum dynamics

A central goal of my work is to bridge the gap between mathematics and applied sciences, such as quantum chemistry. To achieve this, I combine theoretical insights with numerical experiments, ensuring the practical applicability and rigorous validation of novel methodologies.
