research
Summary of research interests:
Global and Geometric Analysis,
Partial Differential Equations on Manifolds with Singularities,
Index Theory, Mathematical Physics, Differential Geometry. (If these words are incomprehensible,
the celebrated
Gauss-Bonnet Theorem gives
the basic gist of some of what I do. The
Atiyah-Singer Index Theorem is a more
precise description of my research.)
The Atiyah-Singer index theorem
Here are the slides on the Atiyah-Singer index theorem "for beginners" that I gave at the MSRI (Mathematical Sciences Research Institute) during the fall of 2008:
› The Atiyah-Singer index theorem I.
› The Atiyah-Singer index theorem II.
› Index theory on singular manifolds I.
› Index theory on singular manifolds II.
