About
My research is directed towards questions in harmonic analysisfor reductive p-adic groups. My work uses a great deal of Bruhat-Tits theory, and, to this end, I also study thestructure of reductive groups over nonarchimedean local fields. I am currently working to finish a paper thatdescribes all twisted unramified Levi subgoups. My next project will be to describe all tame tori via Bruhat-Titstheory.
