Research

My current research interests include sequence spaces and applied mathematics. The main focus of my interest in sequence spaces is in the area of 'statistical convergence', which has nothing to do with statistics. Rather, a sequence is statistically convergent to zero if, for every epsilon greater than zero, the set of of indices for which the terms of the sequence are greater than epsilon is a 'null set'. The best view of bounded statistically convergent sequences comes from considering them as a class of continuous functions on the Stone-Cech compactification of the natural numbers. My interest in 'applied mathematics' is in very applied mathematics. Currently I am especially interested in using wavelet analysis to analyze biological data. This may involve some real statistics.
