        My research interests are in algebraic number theory, in particular the Langlands program, which is a part of the greater effort to understand the deep connection between representations of Galois groups and representations of the adelic points of corresponding reductive algebraic groups. This intricate connection is established by considering the action of the Galois group on geometric objects and their moduli spaces.

        I am a Neukom Postdoctoral Fellow in the departments of mathematics and sociology. My research focuses on the dynamics of human behavior and in particular, the effects that different forms of heterogeneity have on these dynamics. I use a combination of mathematical modeling (including evolutionary game theory and opinion dynamics models), computational simulations, and data collection and analysis. I employ these methods to study group-structured populations and the interplay between behavior, personality, group memberships, and interactions, with applications to the evolution of cooperation, social integration, and polarization. Before coming to Dartmouth, I received my Ph.D. in Quantitative and Computational Biology from Princeton, and my B.A. in Mathematics from NYU.

        Merve N. Kursav received her Ph.D. degree in Mathematics Education from Michigan State University (MSU). Currently, she is a Research Associate in the Mathematics Department and working in Data Science InFusion into Undergraduate STEM Education Project (DIFUSE)at Dartmouth College. Prior to joining MSU, she attended the University of Georgia as a Fulbright scholar and earned an M.A. degree in Mathematics Education. She has taught mathematics to diverse populations of students, from elementary schoolers to college undergraduates. Her research focuses on the experiences and cognition of mathematics teachers in engaging English Learners in mathematics classrooms. She has spent much of her career in all aspects of K- 16 mathematics and STEM education. She has focused explicitly on statistical research methods and applied her theoretical knowledge in various mathematics and STEM education research projects [Investigating Proportional Relationships from Two Perspectives (InPReP2), Connected Mathematics Project (CMP), Instilling Quantitative and Integrative Reasoning (INQUIRE), and Scholarship Program for Retaining (SPRING)] and manuscripts. She is also engaged in the professional community and service to the field. She is one of the founding members of the Critical Philosophical and Psychoanalytical Institute for Mathematics Education and the Journal for Theoretical and Marginal Mathematics Education. She has also served as an active member in the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Advisory committees.

        My research interests lie somewhere between algebraic geometry and number theory. I like thinking about problems that concern classical varieties using modern techniques from algebra and number theory. I completed my PhD at Rice University under the direction of Anthony Várilly-Alvarado; in my thesis, I studied the birational geometry certain moduli spaces of hyperkähler manifolds, with a view towards Diophantine questions on K3 surfaces and hyperkahler varieties. I've also done some work on rational points on modular curves (part of Mazur's "Program B"). These days, I've been thinking about new variants on some classical constructions of Brauer classes from quadric bundles.

        My research interests are in algebraic number theory. A central object in number theory are geometric objects which also have the structure of an abelian group. My research focuses on these objects, especially those with many symmetries, and the moduli spaces which parameterise them. Much of my work is informed by computational methods.
