I'm a Lecturer in Applied Mathematics at Queen Mary, University of London. Previously, I held postdoctoral positions at the Benjamin Levich Institute of the City College of New York and in the lab of E. G. D. Cohen at the Rockefeller University, New York. I have obtained my PhD from the University of Leeds with a thesis on exact relations in driven stochastic systems.


Research

My research interests are focused on non-equilibrium statistical mechanics, in particular:

• Foundations: exact relations (fluctuation theorems, generalized detailed balance relations), information theoretical approach.
  
• Applications to phenomena in biophysics and soft condensed matter: molecular motors, shear induced phase transitions, jammed granular matter.
  
• Stochastic modeling: financial mathematics, anomalous diffusion, Lagrangian turbulence.

Recent publications:

• Singular features in noise-induced transport with dry friction, A. Baule and P. Sollich, submitted.
  

For more information on my research, please go to the list of publications.
 

Teaching

Modules in 2011/12:

• Semester B: MTH739U Topics in Scientific Computing.
  

Enquiries for possible MSc/PhD projects are always welcome! For a list of currently offered MSc projects, please go to the teaching page.


Fully funded PhD project available!

I'm looking for a motivated student with a good background in statistical physics/stochastic processes to work on a project entitled

• "Scaling laws of high frequency financial data and multiple agent models" starting September 2012

Please contact me for further information.
