- Well-posedness theory of Stochastic Partial Differential equations (SPDEs);
- (Stochastic) Nematic liquid crystals and related physical models like Navier-Stokes equations and Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations;
- Weak and strong approximation (Numerics) of SPDEs.,
- (Stochastic) Mathematical-Biological models;
- Martingale solutions and large deviation principle for SPDEs;
- Study of Marcus type jump noise and blow-up criterion;
- Stochastic Homogenization of SPDEs;
