BS in Mathematics and French Literature
Université de Picardie
Amiens, France
Masters (M1, M2) in Algebra, Number Theory and Applications
Mathematical Interests and Research: My initial interest started with the braid group and has grown to include other areas of geometric group theory and algebraic topology such as Coxeter Groups, Hecke Algebras, and Temperley-Lieb algebras. While in Amiens, Dr. Digne directed my Masters 1 and 2 papers in these topics.
Here is my Masters 1 paper on Sergiescu's 1993 paper on presentations of the braid group: M1 Paper.
Here is my Masters 2 paper on Tammo tom Dieck's 1998 paper on Temperley-Lieb algebras associated to the root system D: M2 Paper.
