Research Interests
My research interests are mainly in the areas of stochastic differential equations and their applications. The reseach topics include the existence-and-uniqueness theory of the solutions to SDEs, stochastic stability, stochastic stabilisation by feedback controls, stationary distributions, asymptotic estimations, finite-time convergences of numerical solutions, asymptotic analysis of numerical solutions as well as stochastic modelling in finance, engineering, population systems, ecology etc.
