My CV

Matei

I am a fourth year Ph.D. student in Mathematics at Princeton University. My advisor is Professor Camillo De Lellis.

I graduated from Brown University in 2021 with an Sc.B. in Mathematics.

My graduate studies are supported by the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program.

Research interests

My research interests are in Mathematical Fluid Dynamics, Geometric Analysis, and Partial Differential Equations.
I am especially interested in regularity and uniqueness problems related to the Navier-Stokes and Euler Equations.
I also work on the Riemannian geometry of Lie groups, on geometric flows on curves, and on the theory of viscosity solutions.
