Office Hours:

starting the second week of classes: T 2-3, W 10-11 and W 1:30-2:30, (the latter starting only the third week of classes).

Seminars:: Linear Analysis Seminar meets Fridays 4-5pm in Milner 317. See also the list of members of our research group.; Conference Group actions on measure spaces, TAMU March 24-27, 2011.

My research is mostly on operator algebras with an emphasis on free probability theory and its applications to operator algebras.
