Research Group

Differential Geometry

We study fundamental problems in differential geometry with a focus on symmetric spaces, harmonic maps, and geometric structures. We use classical methods as well as finding new approaches inspired by algebraic geometry, number theory, and dynamics.

Research

Active research projects:

- Minimal surfaces in symmetric spaces and the Labourie-Hitchin map

- Harmonic maps to hyperbolic space and isometric embeddings

- Counting tilings of surfaces, and relations to chemistry

- Mapping class group action on character varieties
