10. Scientific work:
In my diploma thesis, which I completed in 1974 under the direction of Professor S. G. Rohozinski, I investigated the properties of the collective quadrupole states of nuclei that are soft against the triaxial deformation. In 1979 I presented my PhD thesis on a self-consistent method of determination of the inertial functions within the adiabatic time-dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov method.
Since 1979 I have been working on the boson expansion methods for fermion systems. I was able to derive a general classification of the available expansions in terms of the structure of their underlying Lie algebras.
During my stay in Orsay, I collaborated with H. Flocard on an improvement of the Skyrme interaction aimed at the simultaneous correct description of the mean-field and pairing properties of nuclei. We applied the improved force in a study of nuclei near the neutron-drip line within the Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov method.
In collaboration with S.E. Koonin, I worked at the California Institute of Technology on applications of the Monte-Carlo method to determine exact ground-state energies of many-fermion systems for a given two-body interaction.
I continued my interest in self-consistent methods during my stay in Saclay, where I worked together with P. Bonche on the spontaneous left-right symmetry breaking under fast rotation. At the same time, I came back to the boson expansion problems and derived a new method of obtaining the boson-fermion mapping through a fermion expansion of boson operators.
For many years, I have been collaborating with physicists from Orsay, Saclay, Brussels, Lyon and Livermore, working on a self-consistent description of superdeformed states in nuclei.
In collaboration with P. Haensel, I have been studying properties of neutron-star crust matter using self-consistent mean-field methods. In particular, we were interested in deriving the equation-of-state of the stellar medium at densities above the nuclear density.
My collaboration with J. Dudek (Strasbourg) aimed at a self-consistent description of nuclear rotation and exotic shapes with a particular emphasis on the properties of tetrahedral and octahedral minima.
At present, my scientific activity is focused on deriving energy density functionals that would precisely describe nuclear spectroscopic data. This project is carried out within the FIDIPRO project in Jyväskylä, and in collaboration with W. Nazarewicz and the group in Oak Ridge. In particular, we study properties of exotic nuclei far from beta stability, as well as the shell structure and pairing correlations in these nuclei.
