I love computation and visualization. I'm in my element when I'm deep in a hands-on problem and when I'm helping others learn.

PhD Thesis advised by Solomon Friedberg
Maass forms are solutions to the time-independent wave equation in certain geometric spaces. In this thesis I developed and implemented an algorithm for computing Maass forms for 3-dimensional hyperbolic spaces coming from fields Q(sqrt(-d)) where d = 19, 43, 67, and 163. I performed the calculation in C++ and ran the program on a Linux cluster.
