Research Pages
My main research interests are in Geometric Representation Theory.
I have also interests in Algebra, Algebraic Geometry,
and Computer Science.
Below you can find some examples of work students have
done with me.
2005,
Ph.D Dissertation
by Tim Honeywill.
It contains various interesting observations about Kazhdan-Lusztig cells in
Coxeter groups, including Robinson–Schensted correspondence for affine type A
groups and MAGMA implementation of Shi's algorithm.
2007,
Year 4 Essay
by Victoria Hoskins.
It contains a nicely readable introduction into motivic integration including
some explicit computations.
2009,
Year 4 Essay
by Chris Bartlett.
It contains a computation of the character table of the group SL_2 over the ring of dual numbers
over finite field of odd characteristic.
2009,
Year 2 Summer Project
by Lambros Mavrides
It
contains a compution of the character of the dihedral group of order
12 as it acts on the zero weight space of an irreducible representation of G_2
including
GAP implementation.
