Research interests
My research interests lie at the intersection of mathematical physics, geometry and exactly solvable, or integrable, nonlinear differential equations.
Specific topics include: the theory of Frobenius manifolds, Topological Quantum Field Theories, dispersionless integrable systems and their deformations, bi-Hamiltonian structures, singularity theory, twistor theory and self-duality equations.
