  • Master and Bachelor theses

    My Master (Laurea Magistrale) thesis investigates well-posedness and uniqueness of the solution of a system of PDEs describing the evolution of a first-order phase transition in the regime as a time coefficients vanishes. The results have also been published (see above).
