Research Interests:

• Functional analysis, C*-algebras, and noncommutative geometry
• Nonselfadjoint operator algebras, C*-dynamical systems
• Mathematics of wave propagation and seismic imaging
• Numerical methods and applications to geophysics
• Consortia: POTSI and CREWES
  

Teaching Schedule (Fall 2008):

• AMAT 307 Differential Equations for Engineers
  
• L04: MWF 2:00 - 3:00,  ENE 243
  
•  
• PMAT 435 Analysis I
  
• MWF 9:00 - 10:00, MS527

• Tu 10:00-11:00

Operating systems:

• I still continue with a sincere obsession for one particular OS.
  
• We run the Mac OS X for all our computer-assisted mathematics.
  
• Eschew all others, especially the dreaded Windows!
