His research interests include Number Theory, Arithmetic Geometry, Hodge Theory, o-minimality, Shimura Varieties, and Automorphic Forms. He has made significant contributions to the André-Oort conjecture, Ax-Schanuel theorems, and equidistribution problems using tools from model theory and transcendental number theory.
His recent publications show a deep engagement with functional transcendence, differential geometry, and the interplay between algebraic and analytic structures. He frequently collaborates with leading mathematicians such as Jonathan Pila, Benjamin Bakker, and Michael Lipnowski. His work often appears in top-tier journals including Annals of Mathematics, Inventiones Mathematicae, and Compositio Mathematica.
He has taught a variety of advanced courses such as Number Theory (MAT382), Algebraic Number Theory (MAT415), Topology (MAT327), and Problem Solving Seminars (MAT475, MAT495). He has also produced lecture notes on Etale Cohomology and organized Putnam preparation seminars.
While no specific awards are listed in the provided material, his publication record in premier journals indicates high-level recognition in the mathematical community.
He advises students informally through seminars and courses, though no formal PhD students are listed. He is involved in research grants and collaborations, particularly in areas bridging logic and number theory. His office hours and course materials suggest active engagement with undergraduate and graduate education.
He maintains a research group or circle of collaborators, particularly with Benjamin Bakker, Jonathan Pila, and others working on o-minimality and its applications to Diophantine problems.
