Singularity and regularity for Monge-Ampere type equations. The Monge-Ampere equation, as a premier nonlinear partial differential equation, arises in several areas including geometry, physics, and optimal transportation. Many important problems and applications are related to the regularity of solutions, which are obstructed by singularities. This project aims to classify the geometry of the singular sets, and to establish a comprehensive regularity theory for general Monge-Ampere type equation ....Singularity and regularity for Monge-Ampere type equations.

Indigenous mathematical transforms. A class of mathematical transforms, or systematic conversions between related spaces or objects, was practised by some Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander groups. Such transforms from ground to night sky were used in long-distance route-recording and wayfinding techniques.

This project is expected to generate new knowledge in the area of geometric partial differential equations, by utilising new techniques in geometric flows, and by establishing novel methods for boundary value problems. The developed techniques may have far-reaching applications in other areas of mathematical analysis, and the expected results would contribute greatly to the theory of surfaces governed by mean curvature, which arise in various real-world phenomena such as soap bubbles, black hole horizons and bushfire fronts.
