Searching for analytic solutions of physically relevant non-linear partial differential equations
There are numerous fields in physics which deal with highly non-linear phenomena,
and take place in space and time decribed by non-linear partial differential equations (PDE)
such as wave phenomena, transport processes like fluid dynamics, plasma physics, high-energy
physics or grativation. There is no existing general mathematical theory of non-linear PDEs,
however there are some trial functions (Ansätze) like self-similar solutions, traveling
waves which give us physically relevant reasonable solutions helping to get a deeper
insight into the internal properties of such systems.
In the last decades we investigated numerous PDEs, most of them were problems from
viscous hydrodynamics [1], but heat conduction [2], non-linear electrodynamics [3] or
quantum mechanical problems [4] were addressed as well.
The candidate should have a solid knowledge in basic theoretical physics and
ordinary differential equations. We can offer problems in fluid dynamics -- which is under our
present interest --, but the research field of could be slightly changed and defined
together with the PhD candidate.
