I am interested in geometric functional analysis, with emphasis on the geometry of finitely generated groups. At Texas A&M I am working with the Functional Analysis and the Groups and Dynamics research groups. My research is supported by NSF Grant DMS-0900874. Here are links to my MathSciNet profile , CV and travel plans for this year.http://www.math.tamu.edu/~kerr/lanseminar/people.htmlhttp://www.math.tamu.edu/~nekrash/groups/GroupsDynamics.htmhttp://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward.do?AwardNumber=0900874http://www.ams.org/mathscinet/search/author.html?mrauthid=762209http://www.math.tamu.edu/~pnowak/papers/cv.pdfagenda.htmlshapeimage_1_link_0shapeimage_1_link_1shapeimage_1_link_2shapeimage_1_link_3shapeimage_1_link_4shapeimage_1_link_5
