IPAC (Important Papers in Algebraic Combinatorics) Seminar


My research interests are in algebraic and enumerative combinatorics. In particular, I work on problems involving symmetric functions and Macdonald polynomials, combinatorial statistics and q-analogs, rook polynomials, and am also interested in the zeros of polynomials and analytic functions. I like experimental mathematics, and often use computer algebra packages such as Maple in my research, to develop and test conjectures.
