Research/Creative Works

My work has been mostly in the area of Semigroup. I first started in this field of Algebra and Group Theory under the direction of Professor Richard Goldstein as my thesis advisor at the University at Albany.

I received my Ph.D. in May of 1988 by solving the conjugacy problems for finitely presented C(3) and C(4) Semigroup. My research started out by giving a definition for two words to be conjugate in a Semigroup. This definition allows one to prove that, under the same hypothesis given by Adyan in studying the word problem in Semigroup, two words are conjugate in the Semigroup if, and only if, they are conjugated in the induced group. Later on, I showed that the conjugacy problem, using my definition of conjugacy, is solvable in C(3) Semigroup.

A few years later, I got interested in the field of Actuarial Science, and wrote text in that field. I am now active both in Group theory as well as Combinatorics.
