Erin Pearse His research revolves around the study of complex dimensions. This is an extension of real-valued dimensions like Hausdorff or Minkowski/box dimensions. Richly structured sets (like fractals) typically have an infinite sequence of complex dimensions, and these may allow one to study connections between the geometry and spectrum of the set. I am especially interested in how the complex dimensions describe the "geometric oscillations" (that is, the oscillatory behavior of the tube formula) of a set, and how this can be used to study the curvature of fractal sets. This theory touches on harmonic analysis, dynamical systems, geometric measure theory, and convex geometry.   Dr. Pearse is a VIGRE post-doctoral fellow.  Home Page
Keith Stroyan His research focuses on applications of Abraham Robinson's modern theory of infinitesimals.   This includes applications to functional analysis, infinite dimensional manifolds, probability, and economics.   He is also an active developer of a new calculus curriculum that uses modern computing and includes student projects on real problems.

Tuong Ton-That His main research interests can be grouped into three categories: 1) Group Representations: Representation Theory of Lie groups and inductive limits of Lie groups, Invariant Theory; 2) Abstract Harmonic Analysis: Generalization of the theory of the Fourier tranform on the circle group to more abstract groups; 3) Mathematical Physics: Applications of group theory to Quantum Mechanics.

Yangbo Ye His research is focused on analytic and functorial behavior of automorphic L-functions. This includes bounds and zero-free regions for autmorphic L-functions, their prime number theorem, orthogonality, zero distribution, and factorization to primitive L-functions, as well as base change, automorphic induction, relative trace formulas, and the global theory in the Langlands program.
