RESEARCH INTERESTS

Theoretical Particle Physics


BIOGRAPHY

M.S., Physics (1980)
Niels Bohr Institute
Ph.D., Physics(1984)
Niels Bohr Institute

Dr. Henrik Aratyn works in the fields of Theoretical Particle Physics and Mathematical Physics. He holds a Ph.D. degree in Physics from the Niels Bohr Institute (1984). He joined the UIC Faculty in 1987 after 3 years as Postdoctoral Researcher at the Hebrew University and the Ohio State University. During 1994-1999 he was the Chairperson of the Department's Educational Policy Committee. His current scientific interests include: Kadomtsev-Petviashvili hierarchies of the soliton equations, the affine Lie algebraic methods and the dressing techniques, (3+1)-dimensional integrable theories and Hopfions (static, soliton solutions with non-zero Hopf topological +charges), Toda field theory, topological charges, Skyrme model, BRS techniques and quantization, methods for constrained systems, supersymmetry, nonlinear dynamical systems, conformal field theory and W-algebra, Yang-Baxter equations, Knot theory. H. Aratyn has co-edited two books on the topics of integrable models and is in the process of editing Proceedings of the Nato Advanced Resaearch Workshop organized in the summer 2000 at UIC.
