Mathematics
I am an Instructor (Post-Doc) at MIT's Applied Mathematics Department. I am currently in my third (and final) year and have started looking for jobs around the world (US, Canada, sevaral places in Europe, and Israel.)
My research involves the mathematical solution of physical and biological problems, especially when asymptotic methods can be employed. I've looked at problems involving shape optimization, non-linear advection, inhomogeneous diffusion, numerical methods for conservation laws, and, curiously, asymptotics of combinatorial objects.
You might be interested in reading my Research Statement, Teaching Statement, or Resume.
I tend to put my publications and preprints on the arXiv, and that is a good place to look for them.
Want to see some pictures? (Mainly of my daughter Katya...)
Past Teaching
Rock Climbing
Pet projects
- Recipes
- Code Snippets
- LaTeX stuff
- omath An attempt with Scott Morrison and others to write an open algebra system with similar syntax to Mathematica(TM). We didn't get very far...but it was fun.
- Bookly UC Libraries do not allow patrons to renew all their books at one click. Nor do they allow for automatic renewal. This website provide this service for free.
