If you are a William & Mary undergraduate interested in a reading course, independent study or working on a research project, feel free to email me. I am particularly interested in the following topics:
-
Noncommutative Geometry: a powerful theory with many applications, including:
- The study of quantum spaces
- The Standard Model of elementary particles
- Number Theory
- Ergodic Theory
