Research Fields:
- Linear and nonlinear dynamics of magnetic excitations in magnetic films, multilayers, and finite-size samples: spin waves, solitons, parametric instabilities.
- Applications of linear and nonlinear spin waves in microwave signal processing.
Current Research Interests:
- Theory of bright and dark spin wave envelope solitons in magnetic films.
- Theory of two-dimensional diffraction and self-focusing of spin wave packets in magnetic films.
- Theory of amplification and wave front reversal of spin wave packets in a three-wave parametric interaction with localized non-stationary microwave pumping.
- Theory of spin wave spectrum in micron-sized arrays of magnetic wires and dots.
