Research and Practice Interests

Euclidean harmonic analyss: singular integral operators, maximal functions, square functions, Hardy spaces, and BMO. The main focus has been on Bellman functions and the related questions of transference between results for martingales and their continuous analogs. Most recent interests are in Monge-Ampere equations arising in Bellman contexts and connections between the geometry of developable surfaces and optimizers in sharp inequalities; geometric measure theory (Erdos--Falconer conjecture); quasi-conformal and quasi-regular mappings (Beurling--Ahlfors transform); dimension-free action of Fourier multipliers on BMO and sharp interpolation using BMO;  exponential estimates on trees; and two-weight Bellman treatment of classical dyadic operators.
