His research interests center on complex adaptive systems, leveraging topological data analysis (TDA) and persistent homology to extract meaningful structural features from high-dimensional data. His work spans condensed matter physics, biophysics, and econophysics, with a recent emphasis on identifying topological signatures preceding financial market crashes. He also has expertise in first-principles calculations of quantum materials, including multiferroics and 2D systems.

The recent publications highlight a strong trend toward interdisciplinary applications of topology, particularly in financial and economic systems. The articles demonstrate a consistent use of persistent homology to analyze time series, networks, and market dynamics, aiming to detect early warnings of systemic risk. Keywords include econophysics, data science, computational modeling, and complex networks.
