About
My research deals with a number of topics in commutative algebra, including resultsrelated to Stillman's conjecture and the new notion of strength in polynomial rings, CohenMacaulayrings and modules including asymptotic variants of these notions, tight closuretheory and other characteristic p>0 techniques, behavior of symbolic powers, finitenesstheorems for local cohomology, and the Eisenbud-Green-Harris conjecture.
