Research Interests:
My research interests centre around the representation theory of finite groups. I study:
- the representation theory of the symmetric group, and in particular, its combinatorics;
-
the modular representations of finite, and particularly simple groups;
-
infinite groups arising from automata;
-
asymptotics of representation theory, via the concept of representation growth; and
- fusion systems, particularly representation-theoretic and group-theoretic aspects.
