This semester I am teaching Math 181. For questions about 181 send me an email.

My field of research is a branch of Analysis called Operator Algebras. It is an intriguing mixture of Analysis and infinite dimensional Linear Algebra. It is a relatively new field that has its origins in the mathematical formalism of Quantum Mechanics. I am particularly interested in Operator Algebras that arise from Dynamical Systems. Here is some of my past work.

Here are slides for some recent talks:
