Research Interests
My main research interests are K3 surfaces, moduli spaces, birational geometry, and K-stability.
My main focus at the moment is a joint project with Charles Doran, Eric Pichon-Pharabod and Alan Thompson considering mirror symmetry for Tyurin degenerations and elliptically fibred K3 surfaces. Particularly, we are interested in the geometric information contained in the mirror of the Mordell-Weil group of such elliptic fibrations.
