Research:
I study von Neumann
algebras. In particular, I am interested in the classification of type II1
factors. To foster collaboration, I post research ideas at various levels
of development on my research web log.
If you'd like to work with me on something, please comment on the thing you are
interested in and we can collaborate. If you are an undergraduate student who'd
like to work with me, search the category "undergraduate research" to
find undergraduate projects.
Here are some of my papers:
(2007) Some
Remarks on Haagerup's approximation property (w/ Junsheng Fang)
(2006) A Følner
invariant for type II1 factors (w/ Mohan Ravichandran)
(2004) Transitive
families of projections in factors of type II1
