Research Interests

My research interests basically use all mathematical tools to solve physical and natural phenomena. As a result, my research area is multifold:

1. Mathematical Sciences Mathematical Physics, Nonlinear Molecular Dynamics, Dynamical Systems, Stochastic Processes, Chaos, Fractals, Simulation of Biological Processes, Mathematical Models in Medicine, Biomathematics, Population Dynamics

2. Physical Sciences Quantum Field Theory, General and Special Theory of Relativity Experimental Physics (laser and lidar instrumentation), Laser & Lidar Data Analysis of Atmospheric Phenomena, Theoretical Physics, Biophysics, Rheology, Biorheology, Statistical and Quantum Mechanics, Foundations of Physics, Physics of everything
