Research interest

I like to think about problems in number theory, algebraic geometry, and algebraic topology. Currently, I am working on projects related to the following topics.

  • Serre weight conjectures.

  • Arithmetic of surfaces.

  • Hypergeometric motives.

  • Rational homotopy theory.

Publications and preprints

  • Irreducibility of geometric Galois representations and the Tate conjecture for a family of elliptic surfaces. (with Lian duan) Mathematical Research Letters (to appear). [arXiv]

  • Weight elimination in two dimensions when p=2. Submitted, 2017. [arXiv]

  • Integral Sullivan theory. (with Jonathan Scott and Donald Stanley) In preparation.
