This is the study of what's going on behind the scenes of everything,
almost.
Initial handouts and regular announcements will be posted on
Blackboard.
During the Spring term of 2008, I
lost a bet with my Calculus 2 section.
What I've taught
Research interests:
I study representation theory of (and harmonic analysis on)
p-adic groups. On the side, I study discrete optimization.
More details are available.
You can also see a list of my
papers and preprints with abstracts,
or
without abstracts.
I am also part of a junta that organized an NSF-funded
Research
Experiences for Undergraduates program during the summers
of 2005 through 2007.
I was on leave during the 2005-06 academic year.
Here is some of what I saw.
In case you want to contact me reasonably securely,
or verify my digital signature, here is my public key.
By the way, did you know that I work
several jobs?
