My expertise is in the field of mathematical analysis, particularly functional analysis and partial differential equations. Functional analysis is the study of vector spaces in a broader generality than one might encounter in linear algebra. For example, functions can be thought of as infinite-dimensional vectors, and linear operators such as derivatives can be treated as the infinite-dimensional analogue of matrices. This lends a tremendous amount of insight into the behavior of Schrödinger equations, the partial differential equations which govern quantum physics.
