Research interests
- Zeta-functions and L-functions (modularity, special values, behaviour in families, Brauer--Siegel type results, distribution of zeroes)
- Algebraic geometry over finite fields (points on curves and varieties over finite fields, zeta functions, relations to coding theory)
- Families of fields and varieties, asymptotic theory (infinite number fields and function fields, limit zeta-functions)
- Abelian varieties and Elliptic Curves (Jacobians among abelian varieties, families of abelian varieties over global fields)
