Research

My research lies within the field of algebraic dynamics, the study of iterated maps on spaces which are defined algebraically. I am especially interested in rational self-maps of varieties (complex dynamics), particularly in higher dimensions, and exploring their connection with non-Archimedean geometry. Often I am concerned with the notions surrounding dynamical complexity such as dynamical degrees, algebraic stability, and modifying surfaces to better understand these.
