Research Interests
My work lies at the intersection of analytic number theory and arithmetic geometry. I have worked on Manin's conjecture on counting rational points, Schnizel's Hypothesis (H) on prime values of polynomials, Serre's problem on random Diophantine equations and Sarnak's problem on almost prime solutions of Diophantine equations. Lately, I have been looking at connections of these areas with stochastic processes. My papers are on my webpage, arXiv, or Google Scholar.
