Posted on: Thursday, May 13th, 2010
Broad Research Area: Theory / Algorithms

Research Interests:

I am interested in extending methods from mathematical analysis (such as measure theory, fractal dimensions, ergodic theory, and Fourier analysis) to make them into suitable tools for attacking problems in the theory of computing, especially structure of complexity classes, algorithmic information theory, data compression, prediction, algorithmic self-assembly, and other inherently spatial models of computation.
