Publications

My list of publications is still very short. However if you would like to obtain a preprint which you cannot directly download just write me an email :)

• with M. Liero: Rigorous derivation of a plate theory in linear elastoplasticity via Gamma-convergence , NoDEA: Nonlinear Differential Equations and Applications to appear, 2011. (online first  Oct 19th 2011)
• Uniqueness of a quasivariational sweeping process on functions of bounded variation, Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci. (5) , to appear, 2010.

News

I will attend the International Workshop on Hysteresis and Slow Fast Systems  from Dec 12th to Dec 14th 2011.

I am on leave from Aug 15th to Nov 14th 2011. I will be reading my emails but may not be able to answer quickly.

I was once again visiting WIAS Berlin  from May 26th to June 2nd.

I was visiting WIAS Berlin  from November 22nd until November 26th.

In October 2010 I was visiting IMATI  in Pavia, the Universita degli Studi di Brescia  and the Politecnico di Torino .

You can find a german homepage with a short cv and some fancy text about my research here.

Curriculum Vitae

I am a PhD student under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Martin Brokate and a fellow of the graduate programm TopMath funded by the Elitenetzwerk Bayern.

On July 1st 2011 I received a Master of Science with Honors. The topic of my thesis was Lipschitz continuous data dependence of sweeping processes in BV spaces, see the joint publication with Pavel Krejčí.

From January 11th 2010 until April 11th 2010 I joined Research Team 2  at the Necas Center for Mathematical Modelling  and the Insitute for Mathematics  of the Czech Academy of Sciences  as a visiting PhD researcher.

In the summer of 2008 I wrote my Bachelor's thesis under the supervision of Prof. Brokate. The topic of the thesis was Asymptotic Analysis of An Elastoplatic Plate.
