Prior to arriving at ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½°²×¿Æƽâ°æ Lafayette, Dr. Koytcheff held postdoctoral positions at Brown University, the University of Victoria, and the University of Massachusetts Amherst. His research interests lie in spaces of knots and links, at the interface of algebraic and geometric topology. This means that he studies geometric objects such as knots, links, and configuration spaces using concepts from algebraic topology, such as operads and functor calculus.
