Research:

to examine how the interplay of symmetry, smoothness and uncertainty can
characterize structure for geometric manifolds and model dynamical processes

to develop a new paradigm for fundamental inequalities, information encoding
structures, and invariants for analysis on geometric manifolds

principal themes in my research -- symmetry, inequalities, analysis on manifolds

Teaching:

to foster creative tension between research & teaching -- to teach students how to decipher
mathematical ideas and develop intellectual skills to meet the scientific challeges of the 21st century
-- the basic question: what do you see & what does it mean
