Samer Dweik

Samer Dweik is an Assistant Professor at Qatar University. His research focuses on optimal transport theory, calculus of variations, partial differential equations, and free boundary problems. He has contributed significantly to understanding regularity properties of solutions in weighted and nonlocal PDEs, as well as geometric optimization problems involving transport densities and boundary conditions.

• Education: Ph.D. in Mathematics (2018), Thesis: Lp, q estimates on the transport density with Dirichlet region on the boundary via symmetrization techniques

His work explores topics such as the least gradient problem, BV functions, and the interplay between optimal transport and Sobolev regularity. Recent trends in his publications emphasize the analysis of nonlocal operators, fractional Laplacians, and geometric constraints in transport problems. He collaborates with researchers like A. Sabra, P. Rybka, and F. Santambrogio on boundary value problems and regularity estimates.
