Research

I am a third year PhD student interested in noncommutative algebra and representation theory. Here is some stuff I've written or done.

• Reduction of the Hall-Paige conjecture to sporadic simple groups. (submitted to the Journal of Algebra)
• My minor thesis on the convexity of the moment map.
• I gave a talk on higher dimensional rubix cubes.
• Cellularity of diagram algebras as twisted semigroup algebras, Journal of Algebra 309 (2007), Issue 1, 10-31
• Long wavelength behavior of the fundamental mode in microstructured optical fibers, Optics Express 13 (2005) 1978-1984 (Co-authors L. C. Botten, C. M. de Sterke, B. T. Kuhlmey, R. C. McPhedran, D. P. Fussell, and S. Tomljenovic-Hanic)
• Modeling of defect modes in photonic crystals using the fictitious source superposition method, Physical Review E 71 (2005) 056606 (Co-authors L. C. Botten, R. C. McPhedran, C. G. Poulton and C. M. de Sterke)
• Complementation in the group of units of matrix rings, Bulletin of the Australian Mathematical Society 70 (2004), no. 2, 223-227
• A silly latex file that I wrote; compile repeatedly and watch the number of pages.
