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: fluctuation theorems, exact relations, constrained path ensembles.
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:

Rectification of asymmetric surface vibrations with dry friction: an exactly solvable model, A. Baule and P. Sollich (submitted).

For more information on my research, please take a look at the list of publications.

Teaching

Modules in 2012/13:

Semester B: MTH739U/P Topics in Scientific Computing.

For a list of currently offered MSc dissertation projects, please go to the teaching page.

PhD projects

Enquiries for possible PhD projects are always welcome, but please note that UK funding for PhD projects is very limited. Ideally, you should be able to obtain funding from your home country, which is possible, e.g., for Chinese students through the CSC scheme.

Fully funded Queen Mary studentships are advertised around November/December, see the information on this link.
