Daniel A. Ramras

I am an Assistant Professor at IUPUI in Indianapolis. I completed my Ph.D. at Stanford University in 2007, and my advisor was Gunnar Carlsson. I spent two years as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Vanderbilt University, and four years as an Assistant Professor at New Mexico State University, in Las Cruces, New Mexico.

This picture was taken at Oberwolfach.

Research Interests: Algebraic Topology and Algebraic K-theory.
I use techniques from K-theory, homotopy theory, and geometry to study representation spaces of infinite discrete groups. I am especially interested in analogues of the Atiyah-Segal theorem, relating these spaces to complex K-theory. I also study applications of large-scale geometry to assembly maps in algebraic K-theory.
