Du's research focuses on harmonic analysis and its connections to partial differential equations and geometric measure theory. She was named an Alfred P. Sloan Fellow in 2021 and was invited to speak at the 2022 International Congress for Mathematicians. In 2023, she received an NSF CAREER award.
Scholar-generated biography
Xiumin Du is a researcher at Northwestern University specializing in harmonic analysis and partial differential equations (PDE). His work focuses on the Schrödinger maximal function, weighted restriction estimates, and applications to problems such as the Falconer distance set problem. He has contributed to the understanding of Lp estimates, Fourier decay rates of fractal measures, and multilinear refined Strichartz estimates. His research explores the interplay between harmonic analysis and PDEs, with an emphasis on sharp estimates and counterexamples to collapsing estimates. Du's publications often address the behavior of solutions to dispersive equations and their connections to geometric measure theory.
