Teaching

Below are the courses, along with their information, that I am teaching or involved in this semester. Course materials are available on iLearn.

Research

My research field is Algebraic Geometry. Recently, I am focusing on problems related to the arithmetic and topology of Shimura varieties arising from K3 categories. These categories include the derived category of a K3 surface, the K3 category of a cubic fourfold, and more generally the Kuznetsov component of the derived category of a K3-type Fano fourfold.

Papers

Below is a list of my papers in reverse chronological order. They are also available on the arXiv. Please note that the versions on this site are updated more frequently than those on the arXiv prior to journal publication.
