Teaching
|
I am on leave at IAS for the 24-25 academic year.
Here are the previous courses I have taught at Madison.
Research
I am interested in the topology of algebraic varieties, and its interaction with combinatorics and algebraic statistics. I am currently interested in the following topics.
Hodge theory for matroids
The topological aspects of algebraic optimization problems
Singer-Hopf conjectures, topological generic vanishing theorems, and the relations to hyperbolicity
