I expect to complete my Ph.D. in June 2010. These are some of my job search/application materials.
CV, Research statement, Teaching statement.
My general areas of interest are algebra and geometry. Specifically, I am interested in the representation theory of Lie algebras and related objects (algebraic groups, flag varieties, D-modules, perverse sheaves, quantum groups, braid groups, Hecke algebras). I am especially interested in homological methods (triangulated categories, 2-categories) of study.
Fall 2009: I have no teaching responsibilities this term. A list of courses I have taught in the past can be found here.
