Valeriy Slastikov

Dr. Valeriy Slastikov is a Senior Lecturer in Applied Mathematics at the School of Mathematics, University of Bristol. His research spans Micromagnetics, Liquid Crystal Theory, and Materials Science, with a focus on the mathematical modeling of physical systems. He contributes to Calculus of Variations, Partial Differential Equations, and Nonlinear Analysis.

• Education: M.S. (New Jersey), Ph.D. (NYU)

Research Trends highlight his work on Micromagnetic models for ultrathin films, domain wall dynamics, skyrmion stability, and liquid crystal defects. His theoretical studies incorporate geometric constraints, anisotropy effects, and asymptotic analysis.

He collaborates internationally on projects related to magnetic nanomaterials and liquid crystal modeling, including a 2016 research visit by Prof. Hans Kneupfer and a 2011-2013 study on liquid crystalline systems.
