Welcome to the Ghent Analysis & PDE Center!
We welcome you to the intercontinental research group in Analysis and PDE centred at Ghent University. This website is devoted to explaining the research progress in the field of analysis and PDE’s and related topics linked to Michael Ruzhansky‘s research at Ghent University and to the research of other associated colleagues.

The research interests include functional analysis, Fourier analysis, noncommutative analysis, geometric analysis, spectral theory, partial differential equations (PDE) of different types, harmonic analysis, nonharmonic analysis, subelliptic analysis, wavelets and frames. function spaces, functional inequalities, pseudo-differential operators, fractional derivatives, special functions, Fourier integral operators, microlocal analysis, time-frequency analysis. inverse problems, and their interplay with each other and with other fields.
We are also interested in applications of the above research, in its numerical and computer science aspects (e.g. in medical imaging or other applied problems), and in related questions of mathematical physics and mathematical biology.
