Research interests

Gao-Wei Cao's main research areas lie in the mathematical analysis of nonlinear partial differential equations, especially nonlinear scalar equations of conservation laws and stochastic differential equations. His recent research interests include nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws, shock wave theory, fine properties of entropy solutions, and asymptotic behaviors of entropy solutions.
