Riccardo Cristoferi is an Assistant Professor of Mathematics at Radboud University. His work specializes in Analysis and Calculus of Variations, focusing on variational approaches to tackle complex problems in materials science, imaging science, and big data. His research primarily addresses phase transitions in heterogeneous materials, developing robust mathematical models to predict the interplay between physical properties and material combinations. Cristoferi's current projects include studying phase separation in composite materials, proposing rigorous mathematical tools to describe and control the distribution of stable phases. He aims to advance the theoretical foundations necessary for numerical simulations driven by experimental observations. Additionally, he investigates self-assembly in polymers and morphological instabilities during epitaxial crystal growth, bringing forth new directions for mathematical analysis while providing insights applicable in experimental and numerical methodologies.
