Research Interests
- Arithmetic geometry, elliptic curves, algebraic and integer sequences, cryptography, arithmetic dynamics, Apollonian circle packings, game theory.
Recent News
- Jonathan and I are proud to announce the birth of our son, Yitzhak (Isaac). See his beautiful eyes here.
- Jonathan and I are featured in Prime Bits.
- I will be co-organising a special session on "Number Theory with a Focus on Diophantine Equations and Recurrence Sequences" with Patrick Ingram at the AMS Western Sectional Meeting April 13-14, 2013.
- I wrote an article in the AWM newsletter (March-April 2012 issue) about the Women in Numbers conference held at BIRS recently.
- Some work in game theory with Lionel Levine and Scott Sheffield was featured in New Scientist and Frankfurter Allgemeine and most recently in the London Sunday Times. Unfortunately, proper credit was not always given to Kohler and Chandrasekaran, who solved the problem first (thank you to Renate Paes Leme for pointing this out to us after the first preprint was posted to arXiv), or to Scott Sheffield, who worked with us on the second paper.
