University of California, Berkeleyمعرفی
Sung-Jin Oh is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of California Berkeley. His research focuses on geometric partial differential equations (PDEs) arising from physics, combining harmonic analysis, differential geometry, and mathematical physics.
- University of California Berkeley (Current: Associate Professor)
- Korea Institute for Advanced Study (Former: CMC Research Professor)
- PhD: Princeton University (Advisor: Sergiu Klainerman)
- Undergraduate: KAIST
His work addresses singularity formation and long-term dynamics in nonlinear PDEs, including Yang-Mills equations, Einstein equations, Chern-Simons theories, wave maps, and incompressible fluid models. He has contributed to the global well-posedness of the Einstein-scalar-field system, stability of geometric wave maps, and illposedness in magnetohydrodynamic equations.
Recent publications analyze blow-up profiles in Chern-Simons-Schrödinger equations, stability of catenoid solutions for hyperbolic mean curvature equations, and illposedness in fluid dynamics models. His research often bridges general relativity, dispersive PDEs, and geometric analysis.
Scientific awards include:
- Miller Research Fellow
- CMC Research Professor
He organizes seminars on PDEs and relativity and teaches graduate courses on partial differential equations at UC Berkeley.
