I am interested in understanding properties of fractal sets, so I study complex dynamics and geometric measure theory.
Complex Dynamics: I research parabolic bifurcation to calculate conditions for Moebius transformations to converge under iteration.
Geometric Measure Theory: I study Newhouse thickness to determine sufficient conditions for compact dust sets to contain finite-point configurations.
