I am a fourth year PhD student in algebraic topology, supervised by Emanuele DottoLink opens in a new window.

Research

• G-typical Witt vectors with coefficients and the normLink opens in a new window, preprint 2023. I define a generalisation of Witt vectors that can be used to compute the zeroth equivariant stable homotopy groups of the Hill-Hopkins-Ravenel norm of a connective spectrum. Here are the slidesLink opens in a new window from my talk on this work at the 2024 Joint Mathematics Meetings conference.

Education

In 2021 I completed a Master of Mathematics degree at the University of Cambridge. See my LinkedIn profileLink opens in a new window for more details.
