Microlocal analysis and its applications in quantum resonances, partial differential equations with analytic or Gevrey regularity, and several complex variables.

Microlocal analysis explores the classical/quantum correspondence in partial differential equations (PDEs). For example, the concept of symbol quantisation in the theory of pseudodifferential operators links classical observables (functions on phase space) with quantum operators. Read more
