Research

My primary research interest is algebraic geometry, focusing on the interaction between moduli spaces of sheaves and holomorphic symplectic manifolds, more specifically including

  • moduli spaces of sheaves and complexes on Calabi-Yau manifolds

  • holomorphic symplectic manifolds and their degenerations

  • derived categories, stability conditions and wall-crossing
