The main focus of my research is the arithmetic of abelian varieties and the study of their associated Galois representations (in the spirit of the Mumford-Tate and Sato-Tate conjectures). This comprises questions ranging from pure arithmetic geometry (can we find a good description of the effect of base change on the Néron model of a non-semistable abelian variety?) to computational problems (how does one determine the endomorphism ring of the Jacobian of a nice curve over the rationals?). I'm also interested in effective methods for the determination of integral or rational points on algebraic varieties (e.g., modular curves).
