Research Interests
Materials Science: liquid crystals, particularly in confined polyhedral geometries; applications to displays.
Partial Differential Equations: energy and regularity of S^2-valued harmonic maps in polyhedral domains.
Quantum chaos: topological aspects, including Maslov indices and global topology of integrable systems. I am also interested in the spin-statistics relation in nonrelativistic quantum mechanics.
