Research Interests: 

Polynomial and rational interpolation and approximation, barycentric interpolation formulas. In particular, these topics in the complex domain and their applications for analysing complex singularities.

More recently, I have been studying the analysis and approximation of fractional-order PDEs. This is the topic of my master's dissertation.
