My research is in probability with an emphasis on combinatorics. I am particularly interested in card shuffling.
Papers:
On card guessing after an asymmetric single-shelf shuffle. (2026) [arXiv] With Markus Kuba and Raghavendra Tripathi.
On the statistics of random-to-top shuffles. (2026) [arXiv]
Long-time asymptotics for Airy wanderer line ensembles. (2026) [arXiv] With Evgeni Dimitrov, Rundong Ding, and Alex Fu.
Limit Theorems for Descents and Inversions of Shelf Shuffles. (2025) [arXiv]
Guessing Strategies for Shuffling Machines. (2025) [arXiv]
