Research interests

I have recent and current collaborative projects on natural dualities, including their connections to other constructions, with

For a number of years I have been working, in collaboration with Mai Gehrke, on duality and canonical extensions. In particular, we are preparing a research monograph,n Lattices in Logic, for Oxford University Press.
