My research focuses on algebraic combinatorics, specifically the study of nonnegative integers that arise in algebraic contexts. Currently, I'm studying symmetric functions, especially the LLT polynomials, and totally nonnegative matrices, with a focus on exploring the nonnegativity properties of differences in products of permanents. I also like factorization problems within complex reflection groups.
