My research area is Analysis and Partial Differential Equations. I focus on the theoretical aspects of PDEs defined over Euclidean space and Lie Groups (especially on Heisenberg groups and stratified Lie groups). Specifically, I delve into nonlinear functional analysis and variational tools to study the existence of weak solutions and primarily Moser iteration, De Giorgi's to establish the regularity of solutions to nonlinear elliptic PDEs in Euclidean space and sub-elliptic PDEs in Lie groups. My reasearch interests includes:

• Nonlinear Elliptic and Parabolic PDEs. 
• Elliptic and Parabolic PDEs with measure data
• Best constants, Inequalities and Extremals in Sobolev spaces over Lie Groups
• Elliptic and Parabolic PDEs with variable exponents.
• Mixed local and nonlocal Problems Dirichlet problems
• Problems involving Superposition Operators
• Sub-Elliptic PDEs on Lie groups, especially on Heisenberg groups and stratified Lie groups.

Candidates with interest in Analysis may contact me for a PhD.
