Rodica D. Costin

Rodica D. Costin works at the intersection of mathematics and mathematical physics, developing exact and approximate solution methods for differential equations that arise in quantum mechanics, such as the Schrödinger equation describing electrons emitted from metal surfaces by laser or oscillating fields. Her work also covers special functions (like Parabolic cylinder and Jacobi series), asymptotic and factorial-divergent series approximations, and dynamical systems such as the Hénon-Heiles model. This research is largely theoretical, relying on techniques from analysis, differential equations, and mathematical physics rather than laboratory experiments.

Publication output has been modest and somewhat irregular over the last decade, with a peak in 2018 followed by lower but fairly steady annual output (about 1.4 papers per year on average over the last 5 years).
