Info

I'm currently a DPhil student at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford, under the supervision of Jason Lotay. I'm interested in gauge theoretic approaches to problems in low dimensional topology, and links between low and high dimensional geometry. In particular, understanding relationships between different generalisations of the Seiberg-Witten equations.
