Bio

I am interested in number theory, algebraic geometry and representation theory.  I mostly work in arithmetic algebraic geometry. Some more specific themes in my research have been: Shimura varieties and their reductions modulo primes, finite group actions on algebraic varieties, Galois module structure, Galois representations, epsilon constants and values of L-functions, and Riemann-Roch type theorems.
