I am a postdoctoral fellow at Kurt Gödel Research Center for Mathematical Logic, Vienna, Austria. In June 2008, I completed my Ph.D. under the supervision of Dr. Juris Steprans , at York University , Toronto, Canada. My main interests are in combinatorial set theory, structure of the real line and forcing.

  1. A note on nondominating ultrafilters with B. Irrgang, submitted.

  2. Mad families, splitting families and large continuum with J. Brendle, submitted.

  3. A co-analytic maximal set of orthogonal measures with A. Toernquist, accepted at the Journal of Symbolic Logic.

  4. Cardinal characteristics and projective well-orders with S. Friedman, accepted at the Annals for Pure and Applied Logic.

  5. Further combinatorial properties of Cohen forcing with J. Steprans, RIMS Conference proceedings in "Combinatorial and Descriptive Set Theory", Kyoto, 2008.

  6. The consistency of arbitrarily large spread between the bounding and the splitting numbers doctoral dissertation, under the supervision of Dr. Juris Steprans, York University, March 2008.

  7. The consistency of $\mathfrak{b}=\kappa<\mathfrak{s}=\kappa^+$ with J. Steprans, Fundamenta Mathematicae, Volume 201, No. 3, 2008.

  8. Open covers and symmetric operators with S. Watson, Topology Proceedings, Volume 27, No. 2, 2003.

  9. Symmetric complex Banach manifolds and Hermitian Jordan triple systems - diplomarbeit (M.Sc. thesis), under the supervision of Dr. Wilhelm Kaup, University of Tübingen, March 2001.
