Dr Vivek Tewary

Assistant Professor, Mathematics

PhD, Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay

Dr Vivek Tewary is a mathematician working on analysis of partial differential equations. Specifically, he works on the theory of homogenisation — the study of small-scale heterogeneities in physical models; and regularity theory of elliptic and parabolic equations which is about smoothness of solutions in different function spaces. Dr Tewary’s research is informed by ideas from physics and engineering and he wishes to learn from and work with people in those disciplines.

Dr Tewary earned his PhD from the Department of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay in Mumbai. After his PhD, Dr Tewary was also a postdoctoral fellow at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research Centre for Applicable Mathematics in Bengaluru. He is also interested in the philosophy of mathematics/science, reading books, cycling, music, computers and art.
