Research Interests
I am currently highly interested in all of the different ways we can use differential geometry and geometric measure theory to better understand the geometric principles underlying different physical phenomena. In particular, I am interested in how we can translate this understanding in a way that suitable for computation through the use of discrete differential geometry.
