For prospective graduate students

My work is in pure mathematics (far from "real-world" applications!), in an area that involves both algebra and analysis, called Representation theory of p-adic groups. I hope to add some more information here later; for now, please see my research page .

So far, I have been fortunate to work with:

Summer USRA students

Matthew Koster, 2018 and 2019. (part of the project appears as the appendix in this expository article).
Stefan Dawydiak, 2016. Stefan studied real Lie groups.
Reginald Simpson (co-supervised with Greg Martin), 2015. Reginald came up with his own project looking for patterns of divisibility in the Fibonacci numbers and similar recursively defined sequences.
Shamil Asgarli (co-supervised with Sujatha Ramdorai), 2013. The project was to compute some resolutions of singularities using SINGULAR.
Adam Ward, 2007. The project was mostly to learn about Lie algebras, and to do some computations in sp(6).
