Welcome!

I am a Full Professor in the Mathematics Department at Rice University.

My research interests are in various aspects of Noncommutative Algebra, and I am especially interested in (quantum) symmetries of algebras. Lately, my research interests have been centered on algebraic structures in categories. For an introduction to some of these topics, see my 2021 NAM Claytor-Woodard Lecture at the Joint Mathematics Meetings below.

I am writing a three-volume book series on Algebraic Quantum Symmetry, entitled "Symmetries of Algebras".

Volume 1 is now available!
*New* E-book is also out!
