Research
My current research involves a mathematical study of force-free electrodynamics, and the active magnetospheres of black holes. I seek solutions describing the primary mechanism behind jet formation (see figure on left) in supermassive black holes and active galatic nuclei. I am also interested in the cosmology of the early universe and energy conservation in time-dependent spacetimes.
