Wei Liu is currently Jiangsu Specially-Appointed Professor of Mathematics at Jiangsu Normal University. He holds a PhD from University of Bielefeld. He has mostly worked in the field of stochastic partial differential equations and random dynamical systems. He has made contributions on the well-posedness and asymptotic properties (such as large deviation principle, ergodicity and random attractor) of a general class of stochastic partial differential equations using the variational approach. In particular, jointly with Michael Röckner, he developed an extended variational framework (by introducing locally monotone condition and generalized coercivity condition) which gives a unified framework of studying a large class of SPDEs and also provides a systematic approach to SPDEs with solutions exploding in finite time.
