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.

My Book

Euler's Gem received the 2010 Euler Book Prize from the Mathematical Association of America. It was selected by Choice Magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title for 2009.
