Research Interests
My primary research interests are in the broad fields of algebraic and analytic number theory. In particular, I am
interested in how zero-density estimates for families of L-functions can be used as substitutes for the Generalized
Riemann Hypothesis in the solution of certain number theoretic problems. In this regard I have spent a good deal
of time thinking about the extremal nature of class numbers of number fields. Through Trinity's REU I have also
dabbled somewhat in combinatorial number theory, considering certain divisibility properties of integers related to their
representations in various bases, as well as the asymptotic behavior of the repeated iteration of certain arithmetic
functions.
