I am Assistant Professor (tenure track) at the University of Connecticut since Fall 2009. A CV.
Teaching
Currently I am teaching Geometry from derived categories (Topics in Geometry).
Previously, I have taught: In the Fall Semester 2011: Introduction to Algebraic Geometry and Geometry (2360Q). In the Fall Semester 2010: Introduction to Topology and Geometry and Honors Calculus II. In the Spring Semester 2010: Applied Linear Algebra (2210Q) and Algebraic Geometry 2 (5031); In Fall Sememster 2009: Multivariable Calculus (2110Q) and Probability (3160).
Research interests
Algebraic Geometry motivated by string theory:
- Stability conditions in triangulated categories
- Wall-Crossing, Donaldson-Thomas invariants
- (Stacky) Gromov-Witten invariants
My research has been supported by NSF grants since 2008 (DMS 0801356 and DMS 1101377).
