I am a student in MSc Finance and Economics at LSE, with a background in pure maths research, looking for opportunities to apply my skills to quantitative finance. I have completed maths post-docs at the University of Lincoln, the University of the Basque Country and the University of Southampton, on topics including topological groups, homological algebra, and probabilistic finiteness conditions for profinite groups, establishing the exciting new area of Weil zeta functions for these groups.

The Penrose tiling is an aperiodic tiling of the plane (that is, it never repeats), which can be produced by projecting a strip of a five-dimensional lattice onto two dimensions. By changing which strip we choose, we can get infinitely many different patterns.
These pictures represent three-dimensional patterns, made by a single shape (the golden rhombus), which project onto Penrose tilings in two dimensions. They can be produced by projecting a two-dimensional strip of a six-dimensional lattice into three dimensions. The shading shows the tilt of each rhombus, while the two colours represent the two angles the rhomboi can have to the vertical.
This is part of an ongoing project.
