Areas of expertise
Differential geometry
Geometric design
|
My research started in pure mathematics in the fields of
differential
geometry and global
analysis. I have now moved in to more applied
mathematics especially
geometric design. I
am especially interested in representations of curves,
surfaces, and other geometric objects that allows for exact
calculations. An other part of my research is concerned with
geometric effects in
quantum mechanics, with a view to applications in nano
technology.
I am also interested in concrete industrial applications of
mathematics. In 1998 Poul Hjorth and I initiated the first
European Study Group with
Industry (ESGI) in Denmark and I have since participated in
the organisation of these yearly workshops where mathematicians
works on problems from industry.
