Research Interests
My research interests span several areas of General Relativity and Cosmology. Currently, I am working on Post-Newtonian theory, rotating thin shells of matter, Relativistic Positioning Systems, phenomenological studies of radiation, and Numerical Relativity . My master's thesis focused on hyperboloidal slicing and Numerical Relativity. I have also worked on applications of machine learning to parameter estimation.
I am also interested in the origins of science and the scientific method. A remarkable example is the work of Abu al-Ala al-Ma'arri (973–1057), the Syrian philosopher and poet. His Epistle of Forgiveness , which predates the Divine Comedy in its depiction of a journey to Hell, contains the following passage:
“Space is that in whose smallest division all the time can happen and time is that in whose smallest division all space is contained.”
