Research Interests


In principle, all of theoretical computer science. In practice, a subset that includes primarily parts of computational geometry, but also optimization problems on graphs and the like and, of late, polynomial time computability of equilibria in games and some economic models.

A selection of some papers that I have placed online should give a better idea.
