Teaching

Currently (fall semester 2009) I'm teaching two sections of Math 112Z. Here is a link to other courses I've taught in the past.

Research interests

Number theory, arithmetic geometry, with an emphasis on explicit methods;
currently, the Brauer-Manin obstruction on K3 surfaces, as well as torsion points on elliptic curves.

Papers

Tate-Shafarevich groups and K3 surfaces, to appear, Math. Comp.

The Brauer-Manin obstruction on Del Pezzo surfaces of degree 2, Proc. London Math. Soc. 95 (2007), no. 3, 735-777.

Del Pezzo surfaces and the Brauer-Manin obstruction, Ph.D. thesis, U.C. Berkeley, 2005.

Del Pezzo surfaces of degree 6, Math. Res. Lett. 12 (2005), no. 1, 75-84.

Slides

Del Pezzo surfaces and the Brauer-Manin obstruction, slides from an invited talk I gave at a special session of the AMS in analytic number theory and modular forms in November 2006.

Brauer-Manin obstructions on K3 surfaces and Sha for genus-2 Jacobians, slides from a talk I gave at the 2009 AMS Joint Meetings.
