Research

I am currently interested in the appearance of certain integrable differential equations in the context of geometric structures on manifolds. An example is the occurrence of the generalised Chazy equation with parameters k=2/3 and k=3/2 in the study of maximally symmetric bracket-generating rank 2 distributions on 5 manifolds.
