Things that I wrote
I've grouped my writings into several categories
Papers
Books and notes
- Wiener chaos and limit theorems, I survey the concepts of Gaussian Hilbert spaces, their
chaos decomposition and the accompanying Malliavin calculus. I then
describe how these ingredients fit in the recent central limit
theorems of Nourdin and Peccati in the Wiener chaos context.
- The wave group and spectral geometry, I describe in some detail Hadamard's construction of parametrix for the wave operator on a Riemann manifold and then explain how to use this for spectral estimates. I follow Hormander's modern approach.
- Pseudodifferential operators and some geometric applications, These are notes for a graduate course I've taught at the University of Notre Dame in Spring 2010.
- The signature theorem and some of its applications, These are notes for the Topics in Topology class I taught during Fall 2008. I cover most of the prerequisite required to understand Hirzebruch's signature theorem and Milnor's construction of exotic spheres.
- Microlocal investigations of shape, Notes for a topics class, Notre Dame Fall 2006.
- Notes on Morse Theory, Notes for a topics class, Notre Dame Fall 2005. (This is the 2nd edition of my Morse theory book, with any new corrections incorporated.)
- Notes on the Atiyah-Singer index theorem, Notes for a topics class Notre Dame, Spring 2004 and 2013.
- The Poincare-Verdier duality, These are notes about the derived category of sheaves and what you can do with it.
- Notes on the Reidemeister Torsion, This is more or less my Walter de Gruyter book with the sam name. I'm particularly proud of chapter 3 in this book where I explain how to compute the torsion of certaion classes of 3-manifolds using Fourier transform on discrete Abelian groups
- Notes on the Topology of Complex Singularities, Notes that grew from a topic course at Notre Dame 1999-2000.
- Notes on Seiberg-Witten theory, These grew up from a seminar I ran at McMaster 1997-98 and a topic course at the university of Notre Dame 1998-99.
- Lectures on the Geometry of Manifolds, This is my first book, and the one I'm most proud of, although it suffers from youthful exuberance. This is more polished than the published version.
- Introduction to Real Analysis, These are notes for the four-semester honors calculus at the University of Notre Dame. It covers the differential and integral calculus of functions of one and several variables, proofs included. I also discuss a few topological concepts.
- Introduction to Probability, These are notes for the undergraduate probability class I've been teaching at the university of Notre Dame.
- Notes on Linear Algebra, These are notes for an Honors Linear Algebra course at Notre Dame, Spring 2013.
