Dipartimento di Scienze di Base e Applicate per l'Ingegneria

have worked mostly in the field of evolutive partial differential equations, in general of parabolic type.

Specifically I have been interested in: Nonlinear degenerate diffusion equations: blow up problems; asymptotic bounds for solutions.

Free boundary problems: problems of change of phase; problems in fluid dynamics. Mathematical problems in biology: phototransduction in retina cells; conduction of electrical currents in biological tissues; transport of ions through cell membranes. See my Home Page for more information.
