<strong>Research Interests</strong>
</p>
<p>
My research interests lie in noncommutative geometry and geometric analysis, in particular:
<ul>
<li>
<div align="left">Yang-Mills theory in noncommutative geometry; moduli spaces of instantons on noncommutative four-manifolds;</div>
</li>
<li> <div align="left">noncommutative geometry of quantum groups and their homogeneous spaces;</div>
</li>
<li>
<div align="left”>complex structures on noncommutative homogeneous spaces; noncommutative twistor theory;</div>
</li>
<li>
<div align="left">unbounded (i.e. constructive) KK-theory and applications.</div>
</li>
</ul>
