Expertise

Mathematics

My research interests are broadly in topology, algebra, and their interplay. Particular interests include: Group actions on manifolds, equivariant maps, free rank, topological complexity, combinatorial and finite group theory, generalised braid groups, Artin and Coxeter groups, knot theory, mapping class groups, solutions to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation.
