I am a professor of mathematics at the University of Michigan. I work in analysis and probability, and also to some degree in mathematical physics and applied mathematics. My research topics include random matrix theory, integrable systems, integrable probability, KPZ universality, random growth models, spin glass, orthogonal polynomials, and Riemann-Hilbert problems.
