• I am an Assistant Professor in the
Department of Mathematics and Physics
at Colorado State University, Pueblo, where
I teach, this Fall semester of 2008:
  • Math 156: Introduction to Statistics, Section 3
        (This is the MWF 11am, "workshop"
        section; here is the HW page).
  • Math 224: Calculus and Analytic Geometry II
        (here is its schedule/HW page)
  • Math 156: Introduction to Statistics, Section 6
        (This is the MWF 2pm, "traditional"
        section; here is the HW page).
• For the web pages of the courses I taught in the spring of 2008, see this link.


Random Useful Information A type {2,7,5} example on the boundary of hyperbolic space

• In case you need to be able to recognize me on the high seas, here is an image of me.
Here is a fairly up-to-date Curriculum Vitæ; or else here are some recent affiliations.

Random Scientific Information
• Some of my [p]reprints can be found here.
• Follow this link for some interactive mathematics -- using a Java applet to help visualize the geometry of fundamental domains (like the pattern of circles above) for the action of cyclic subgroups of PSL(2,C) on the boundary of three-dimensional hyperbolic space H3.
• Many pretty fundamental domains (like the one to the left) in the interior of H3 for the action just mentioned are shown in a gallery.

Some purely personal pictures might be found here. The 3-dimensional moduli space of boundary compactifications

An explanation of the background is available for the incurably curious; other pictures on this page are fully explained in my papers -- read them or weep!
