Michael Mudi Tom

Michael Mudi Tom is a Professor at the Department of Mathematics, Louisiana State University, with a research focus on nonlinear partial differential equations in mathematical physics. He has held faculty positions since 1991, including progressive roles from Assistant to Professor.

• Ph.D., Pennsylvania State University (1990)
• B.S., University of Jos, Nigeria (1981)

His research explores nonlinear dispersive equations, particularly Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) models, Benjamin-Ono equations, and regularized long-wave systems, analyzing their solutions, stability, and wave interactions. He has contributed to theoretical foundations of solitary wave dynamics.

Recent publications examine global solutions, blow-up phenomena, and comparative modeling of nonlinear wave equations. Collaborators include Jerry L. Bona and Yue Liu.
