Research summary

Nung Kwan Yip works in applied and analytical mathematics, studying partial differential equations that describe how shapes, interfaces, and material patterns evolve over time (such as crystal growth, curvature flow, and liquid crystal dynamics). His work also touches on related mathematical tools including stochastic processes, homogenization (simplifying models with many small-scale variations), and gradient flow methods, with some recent applications to understanding neural network behavior. This research is largely theoretical, aiming to prove rigorous mathematical properties of these physical and computational models.
