Research

Picture by John Stembridge

I am interested in the representation theory of real semisimple Lie groups. I recently made some calculations for the nonalgebraic double covers of certain 'spin' groups of type B. The results of these calculations may be found here. I also have similar calculations for the universal cover of the split real form of type F4.

These calculations are related to a larger computational project known as The Atlas of Lie Groups and Representations.

Here is a link to my thesis.
