Research Interests

I am interested in dynamical systems, topology, and the interplay between the two. In particular, I am fascinated with the Conley index, notions of recurrence, expansiveness, homology and dynamical systems, dynamics on surfaces, symbolic dynamics, knot theory, graph theory, and mathematical billiards. I enjoy the history of mathematics, especially Euler's polyhedral formula and the birth of topology. I also enjoy recreational mathematics and puzzles.
