In our group, we combine the development and application of new mathematical models and numerical techniques with cutting edge research problems in modern Materials Science. Our main research interests are modeling of thin film growth, elasticity theory, and quantum computing. On the photo (from left to right): First row:Russel Caflisch, Youri Bae, Sunmi Lee, Yanina Landa, Pradeep Thiyanaratnam. Second row:George Huang, Chris Anderson, Xiaobin Niu, Christian Ratsch, Lovell David Shao, Young-Ju Lee, Ignacio Plans. Our group consists of people with backgrounds in Mathematics and Physics. We have close interactions to Members of the Materials Science Department at UCLA, and local industrial research laboratories. We are a friendly and collaborative group. top of the page Island dynamics using the Level-Set method Quantum Computing (QUIST) Research related to 6.1 Angstrom materials (III-V semiconductors) DFT calculations to determine structure and properties of small Vanadium clusters If you are interested to find out more, please check out this web page, and/or contact any of the following: Professor Russel Caflisch Professor Chris Anderson Dr. Christian Ratsch top of the page Last updated: Any questions and comments?
