Alexei Rybkin

Dr. Alexei Rybkin is a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Alaska, specializing in nonlinear partial differential equations related to water wave dynamics. He earned his PhD from Leningrad State University in 1985.

His research spans theoretical and applied domains, focusing on integrable systems via inverse spectral methods and shallow water wave modeling for tsunamis. He collaborates with geophysicists and involves graduate/undergraduate students in his work.

Recent publications emphasize KdV solitons, shallow water transforms, and nonlinear wave run-up analysis. While no explicit awards are listed, his work contributes to fluid mechanics, coastal engineering, and environmental modeling.
