About myself
I'm
a lecturer at MSOR, VUW; if you are (still) puzzled by this
abbreviation,
have a look at the above links. Before moving to Wellington
in 2009, I spent 2 years in Edmonton as a postdoc
in Prof. Anthony
To-Ming Lau's group.
I studied for my PhD in Leeds
under the supervision of Prof. H.
Garth Dales. Before that, I did my undergraduate study
in Canberra,
my honours thesis was supervised by Dr. Richard Loy.
My pre-university education took place in Hanoi, mostly. Yes,
it's not
all!
Lucky me, I've lived in yet another beautiful city of Budapest, during
the innocent years of primary school.
Research
My
research interest is Banach algebras and abstract harmonic
analysis.
