Research interests.

Broadly I am interested in mathematic problems inspired by physics, in particular quantum and statistical mechanics, and I use methods from combinatorics, probability, and geometry to solve these problems. Of late, I have been studying the scaling limit of certain two-dimensional dimer models.
