Research Students
Current students:: My current students Tom Collyer, Robert Tang and Francesca Iezzi are working on the curve complex, and related matters.; My third student Ken Shackleton successfully defended his PhD thesis on the geometry of curve complexes in October 2005, and is currently at IMPU, University of Tokyo.
My former student Javier Aramayona sucessfully defended his PhD thesis on pants complexes and relatively hyperbolic groups in December 2004. He is now based at the National University of Ireland at Galway.
My first student Asl{\i} Yaman successfully defended her PhD thesis on relatively hyperbolic groups in January 2003. She is now based at the Université de Provence.
