The main topics of the research
The research concentrates on understanding the formation and subsequent evolution of galaxies primarily using numerical methods. The main topics include:
- Formation and evolution of disk and elliptical galaxies
- The role of dark matter in galaxy formation
- Formation and evolution of supermassive black holes
- Modelling galactic stellar dynamics
- Dynamics of the interstellar medium and star formation in external galaxies
- Computational astrophysics -- numerical N-Body, SPH simulations
- Observational studies of high-redshift and local galaxies
