Ioakeim Ampatzoglou

Ioakeim Ampatzoglou serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the Weissman School of Arts and Sciences, City University of New York (CUNY). His academic profile centers on advanced mathematical research with significant contributions to kinetic theory and partial differential equations.

His educational trajectory includes a Ph.D. in Mathematics from The University of Texas at Austin (United States) and a B.Eng in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens (Greece). These foundational qualifications underpin his rigorous analytical approach to complex mathematical problems.

Dr. Ampatzoglou's research program focuses on evolutionary partial differential equations, mathematical physics, and kinetic theory. He specializes in deriving and analyzing fundamental equations like the Boltzmann equation and kinetic wave equations, with particular emphasis on well-posedness, scattering theory, and moment estimates for collisional processes. His work bridges abstract mathematical analysis with physical applications in statistical mechanics.

His 14 publications from 2020-2024 reveal a cohesive research trajectory centered on kinetic theory. Key themes include rigorous derivations of higher-order Boltzmann equations for hard spheres and dense gases, global well-posedness for binary-ternary collision models, and scattering theory for inhomogeneous kinetic wave equations. These contributions demonstrate increasing mathematical sophistication in handling nonlinear phenomena across fluid dynamics and statistical physics.

Dr. Ampatzoglou actively serves the academic community as a reviewer for prestigious journals including Nonlinearity, SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, and Journal of Statistical Physics, as well as for National Science Foundation grant proposals. He also contributes institutionally through committee service at Baruch College, including the Calculus Committee and Finals Committee.
