Teaching & Office Hours
In FA13, I am teaching Math 235: Calculus I and Math 238: Linear Algebra and Differential Equations. My office hours are MWF from 11 to noon, Wed from 2 to 3, and TH from 4 to 5 (as determined by Doodle poll). I'm often in my office, so feel free to stop in whenever my door is open.In previous semesters at JMU, I've taught:
- Mathematics of Ancient Greece: Math 103 (SM10, SM11, SM13)
- Introductory Calculus: Math 205 (SP11)
- Calculus with Algebra: Math 231 (FA08,FA09) and 232 (SP07,SP08,SP11)
- Calculus I : Math 235 (FA09,FA11,FA12)
- Calculus II: Math 236 (SP13)
- Calculs III: Math 237 (FA12)
- Computers & Numerical Algorithms: Math 248 (SP10,FA10,SP12)
- PDE and Fourier Series : Math 440 (FA08, FA09)
- ODE theory : Math 441 (SP09)
Research Interests
I am interested in applying mathematics to physical problems. I have worked on problems from atmospheric science, coupled multi-physics, porous media, and nonlinear waves. I'm currently thinking about analytic continuation and ODE. I use both analytic and numeric techniques, while drawing on aspects of dynamical systems, PDE theory, functional analysis and numerical analysis. More specific information can be found here. Links to papers are found here.
