Jared Wunsch is an American mathematician working in the areas of partial differential equations, microlocal analysis, spectral theory and mathematical physics. He is currently a professor of mathematics at Northwestern University.[1]

Education and career

Wunsch attended Princeton University, obtaining his A.B. in mathematics with a senior thesis under the supervision of Elias M. Stein in 1993. He received his Ph.D. from Harvard University under the supervision of Richard B. Melrose in 1998.[2] Following his postdoctoral appointment at the Columbia University, he was an assistant professor at Stony Brook University from 2000 to 2002. After this appointment, he joined Northwestern University and became tenured in 2009. He served as department chair from 2012 to 2015.

Research

The main feature of Wunsch's work is the application of tools from microlocal analysis to problems in Schrödinger and wave equations, as well as numerical analysis. He analyzed the propagation of singularities for solutions of wave equation on conic manifolds with Richard B. Melrose[3] and later on edge manifolds with Richard B. Melrose and András Vasy.[4] His most cited results include his work on resolvent estimates on hyperbolic trapped sets with Maciej Zworski [5] and his work on sharp Strichartz estimates on conic manifolds with Andrew Hassell and Terence Tao.
