I am an Assistant Professor in the
Department of Mathematics at the
University of Nebraska — Lincoln, and my research is in
commutative algebra. Before joining UNL, I was an Assistant Professor at the
University of California, Riverside, a postdoc at
The University of Michigan, and a graduate student at the
University of Virginia,
where my
PhD advisor was
Craig Huneke.
I am originally from Portugal, where I first learned commutative algebra
from
Maria Vaz Pinto at
Instituto Superior Técnico.
My research is supported by NSF CAREER grant DMS-2236983, and I am co-PI on the NSF RTG grant
Commutative Algebra at Nebraska.
Lecture notes: my
lecture notes on symbolic powers are under construction and still missing several chapters. You can find other lecture and talk notes, as well as a few videos of talks
here. Here are my notes on
homological algebra.
I organize
CHAMPS, showcasing the work of early-career researchers in commutative algebra and related fields on the US academic job market.
Jack Jeffries and I are organizing a conference in honor of
Bhargav Bhatt's
Rowlee Lecture. The lecture will be held on Friday, March 28, 2025, and be followed by a conference on Commutative Algebra in mixed characteristic on Saturday, March 29. More information can be found on the
conference website.
