Table of Contents
I am an algebraic geometer with broad interests. Being an algebraic geometer means that I fundamentally study solution spaces of algebraic equations. I am interested in classical algebraic geometry, enumerative geometry, deformation theory, algebraic stacks, derived categories, among other things.
In the second half of 2023, I am on parental leave.
Upcoming travel:

Odds and ends
- A sketch of the Thurston compactification of the stability manifold for a generic non-algebraic K3 surface This is an instance of the construction proposed in the paper with Bapat and Licata.
- GIT for syzygies of genus 7 curves
This is an ongoing project to determine GIT stability for syzygies of genus 7 canonical curves. This is the first genus where canonical syzygies define an interesting GIT quotient, so it would be nice to understand the complete picture. One day… - Categorical braid group actions
With Asilata Bapat, I wroteSage
code to make explicit computations in the homotopy category of projective modules over a ring. In particular, this code can compute braid actions on complexes of projective modules over the zig-zag algebra of a quiver. - MSI course graph
