I have recently studied mathematical problems related to non-standard growth, especially generalized Orlicz spaces and some double phase growth as well. See also Function spaces and differential equations (research group page).
I also study mathematics education, in particular flexiblity. See also Nordic Network for Algebra Learning (N2AL, network page).
All my publications can be accessed for free from my list of publications.
Editorial board member of the Annals of Functional Analysis.

I am the chairman of the national Matriculation examination board and of the Finnish Commision for Mathematics Instruction.
I am also involved in the Joustavaan matematiikkaan continued professional development program.
Our Joustavaan yhtälöratkaisu material and my pod-cast can be found on the flexibility page (in Finnish).
