I am currently a scientific resercher at Steklov Mathematical Institute of Russian Academy of Sciences.
I obtained my Ph.D at Vanderbilt University under the supervision of Mark Sapir.
My research interests lie in the field of geometric group theory, especially geo- metric methods on algorithmic problems of groups, and orderable groups, especially the computability of an order. For details, here is my research statement.
Here is my CV.
