Nicoleta received her Ph.D in Differential Geometry from University
“Politehnica” of Bucharest, Romania. She has spent more than 4 years in research,
working as a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Kent
at Canterbury and the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom and at Johannes
Kepler University and Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied
Mathematics, Austria. Her teaching experience spans over 13 years and ranges
from high school through graduate level. She is a member of the Society for
Industrial and Applied Mathematics, the American Mathematical Society, and
the Association for Women in Mathematics. |

Research
Research Interests: Applied Mathematics. Symmetry analysis of differential equations: classical
and nonclassical symmetries, potential symmetries, equivalence
transformations, group-invariant solutions, variational symmetries, and
conservation laws; Applications of symmetry analysis theory to mathematical
models arising in mathematical physics, mathematical biology, image
processing, engineering, financial mathematics, and other research fields;
Geometric approach to parameter identification problems modeled by partial
differential equations; Symbolic manipulation programs for symmetry analysis;
Nonlinear partial differential equations, in particular Monge-Ampère
equations.

Plagiarism: My Ph.D.
Advisor Prof. Dr. Constantin Udrişte and I have sadly found out that our
results on the classical symmetries for the Monge-Ampère equations have been
plagiarized by Mehdi Nadjafikhah and Parastoo Kabinejad from Iran University of
Science and Technology in their paper “Symmetry
group of surfaces PDE” posted online at http://arxiv.org/abs/1007.1110 on
July 7, 2010
