Research summary

Arshak Petrosyan works in mathematical analysis, focusing on partial differential equations (mathematical descriptions of how quantities change over space and time) and especially 'obstacle problems,' where a function is constrained to stay above or below some barrier. Much of the work studies the shape and smoothness of the boundary between regions where the constraint is active or inactive, including versions involving fractional derivatives (a generalization of ordinary calculus) and time-dependent (parabolic) settings. This research is theoretical, aimed at proving precise mathematical properties of solutions to these equations.

Publication output has fluctuated over the past decade with a peak in 2019 and generally modest, steady numbers of 1-3 papers per year since then.
