Current Research and Publications

  • His research interests in mathematics include applied partial differential equations pertaining to heat conduction ("A Runge Theorem for Solutions of the Heat Equation", Transactions of the American Mathematical Society); theoretical partial differential equations involving the tangential Cauchy-Riemann complex on a real hypersurface (Communications in Partial Differential Equations and Duke Mathematics Journal); applications of Fourier analysis to the geometry of lattice polyhedra ("The Ehrhart Polynomial of a Lattic Polytope, Annals of Mathematics); and "The Frobenius Problem, Rational Polytopes, and Fourier Dedekind Sums", Journal of Number Theory, (with Matthias Beck and Sinai Robins) .
