Welcome to my homepage. I am an assistant professor at the department of mathematics of the Radboud University in Nijmegen. My research interests include spherical varieties, representation theory of Lie groups, harmonic analysis, algebraic groups,
branching rules, matrix-valued orthogonal polynomials.
Together with Wadim Zudilin and Erik Koelink, I am organizing a conference in Nijmegen from 1 to 3 May 2024:
Hypergeometric and Orthogonal Polynomials Event (HOPE in May).
Together with Erik Koelink, I am advising the PhD students Philip Schloesser and Stein Meereboer, who are working on the project "Vector-valued Orthogonal Polynomials and Multiplicity Free Induction: Deformations and Quantizations" (NWO-M2, 2022-26).
Together with Jasper Stokman, Mikhail Isachenkov and Erik Koelink, I am organizing an informal seminar on
Harmonic Analysis on Quantum Groups and Hecke Algebras
.

Software
Together with Pablo Román I have written a GAP-code (
Sp.g,
SPn_lib.g) to calculate spherical functions on the compact Gelfand pair (Sp(2n),Sp(2n-2)xSp(2)). Feel free to improve and/or extend to other Gelfand pairs!
The WHK/SHK-project: Representation theory, Computer Algebra and Special Functions that was kindly granted by the University of Paderborn resulted into two GAP-codes (PHI0.g, PHI0_library.g). These files came about with the help of my WHK (scientific assistant) Stanislav Smirnov. The results have been incorporated in the preprint Spherical functions on spheres of rank two. Here is a Mathematica notebook with a couple more calculations.
