David Michael Addis Stuart

David Michael Addis Stuart is a Reader in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge. He has been a Fellow of St John's College Cambridge since 1999. His research focuses on the mathematical analysis of solitons in nonlinear classical field theories (e.g., Yang-Mills and Einstein equations) and related problems in nonlinear analysis.

Research interests:

• Nonlinear partial differential equations
• Soliton stability and dynamics
• Geodesic hypothesis in field theories
• Polyconvex energy in elastodynamics
• Mathematical physics applications
• Quantum field theory and general relativity intersections

Publications and trends:

• Stability analysis of solitary and non-topological solitons
• Adiabatic limits and vortex dynamics
• Geometric methods in field theories on manifolds
• Hamiltonian systems and Nekhoroshev-type stability
• Free boundary problems in particle-field coupling
• Connections between classical field theory and Newtonian limits
