Here is my CV

Research interests: geometric topology, nonpositively curved geometry, and group theory. This grant proposal I wrote in 2025 gives a summary of what I'm thinking of this days (it's mostly about the Singer conjecture, but also about group rings and topology of 2-complexes.)

To get an idea of where geometric topology has been and where it might be headed, one could do worse than looking at Weinberger's essay ''Variations on a theme of Borel''.

In the winter of 2018-2019 I taught a course on nonpositively curved manifolds and in the spring of 2024 a course on the topology of 2-complexes.

In December 2021 I taught a minicourse relating L^2-invariants, homology growth, reflection groups and embedding theory (Boards of lectures 1, 2, and 3.)
