Research

My main areas of research are in graph theory and combinatorics. I am particularly interested in graph coloring, extremal problems involving chromatic numbers and planar graphs. I have also done some work in hypergraphs and partially ordered sets.

Some of my recent papers:

1. On a construction of graphs with high chromatic capacity and large girth, in Discrete Mathemaitcs.

2. A lower bound for the chromatic capacity in terms of the chromatic number of a graph, in Discrete Mathematics.

3. On graph orientation and the number of vertices in a longest directed path, submitted.

4. On color critical graphs with large adaptable chromatic numbers, submitted.
