Statement:
My main research interests lie in the intersection between General Algebra (also known as
Universal Algebra) and Group Theory. I am particularly interested in the interplay between
ideas and tools from general algebra and how they can be used to solved concrete problems
in other areas of mathematics.
Selected research publications:
- Certain homological functors for 2-generator p-groups of class two (with Robert F. Morse),
submitted.
- Embedding p-groups of class two and prime exponent in capable and non-capable groups,
Bull. Austral. Math. Soc. 79 (2009) pp. 303-308.
- Capability of nilpotent products of cyclic groups II, J. Group Theory 10 (2007) no. 4,
pp. 441-451.
- Capable two-generator 2-groups of class two, Comm. Algebra 34 (2006) no. 6,
pp. 2183-2193. MR 2007b:20037.
