Research Interests

The main field of my interest lies in theoretical solid state physics, electron structure and transport properties of metals and low-dimensional semiconductor structures. During my six-month stay (1973-74) with Prof. F.J. Blatt at the Michigan State University I worked on the theory of temperature and magnetic field dependence of thermopower in metals and became interested in the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations of transport coefficients in strong magnetic fields. In subsequent years I concentrated on the theory of the quantum Hall effect and other transport phenomena in low-dimensional systems. In 1985 I spent three months at the New York State University (Buffalo) and began to collaborate on the theory of low magnetic field conductivity of quasi-one-dimensional systems with Prof. A. Isihara.

I have published more than 65 papers in international scientific journals and presented more than 10 invited talks at scientific conferences.

Starting from 1964, I occasionally conducted seminars and read lectures on the electromagnetic field physics, thermodynamic, low-temperature physics, and the theory of electronic structure of metals at the Technical University and Charles University, Prague and at courses for graduated students organized by the Institute of Physics. I also was a supervisor of 6 MSc. thesis and a supervisor/consultant of 6 PhD. thesis.
