Yann-Meing Law is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Industrial Engineering at Polytechnique Montréal, where he conducts research in numerical methods for partial differential equations with a focus on computational electromagnetics. He teaches courses including Differential Equations for Engineers and Scientific Computing for Engineers.
Education:
- Ph.D. in Engineering Mathematics, Polytechnique Montréal (2018)
- M.Sc.A. in Applied Mathematics, Polytechnique Montréal (2014)
- B.Eng. in Biomedical Engineering, Polytechnique Montréal (2013)
Dr. Law's research focuses on developing advanced numerical techniques for solving electromagnetic wave propagation problems. His work particularly emphasizes high-order methods for interface and embedded boundary problems, Hermite methods, the p-curl problem, and modeling nonlinear dispersive media. He applies these methods to Maxwell's equations, developing innovative correction function approaches that maintain accuracy at interfaces with discontinuous coefficients or complex geometries.
Analysis of Dr. Law's recent publications (2019-2025) reveals a consistent research trajectory centered around developing and refining the Hermite-Taylor Correction Function Method. His work demonstrates increasing sophistication in handling complex interfaces, embedded boundaries, and nonlinear dispersive media, with strong interdisciplinary connections between computational mathematics, physics, and engineering applications.
Dr. Law actively mentors graduate students and has expressed interest in recruiting motivated students for research-based Master's and Ph.D. programs focused on numerical methods for wave propagation in complex heterogeneous media. He has also been involved in outreach activities including mentoring first-generation students and advising coding clubs for K-12 students.
His professional activities include presenting at major conferences such as SIAM meetings, WAVES conferences, and the North American High Order Methods Conference, demonstrating active engagement with the computational mathematics community.
