Melih Ucer is a postdoctoral researcher in the Mean-Field Games group at KAUST.

Biography

Dr. Melih Üçer received his B.S. in physics from MIT and Ph.D. in mathematics from Bilkent University, where he did research on geometric topology. He has been a postdoc at KAUST in Prof. Diogo Gomes' group since 2023, working primarily on existence and regularity of weak solutions to mean-field game equations. He is also active in training students for mathematical olympiads.

Research Interests

Melih Ucer is primarily interested in existence and regularity of weak solutions to mean-field equations (MFE), which are PDE systems consisting of a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation and a Fokker-Planck equation.
