Until 2023, the undergraduate school had five divisions. 'Division' provided above refers to the faculty member's former affiliation.
Research areas Mathematics, Complex dynamical systems, Random complex dynamical systems, Fractals, Ergodic theory
Keywords Chaos, Fractals, Randomness-induced phenomena, Complex singular functions
Themes I am working on (random) complex dynamical systems and fractal geometry. Especially, I am interested in randomness-induced phenomena ( new phenomena in random dynamical systems which cannot hold in deterministic dynamical systems).
