Research

My research is in the area of Mathematics called Algebra. I am mainly interested in ring theory and homological algebra; studying notions such as radicals, primeness, nilpotency, local cohomology, local homology, morphic  structures,  reduced modules,  coreduced modules, Cousin complexes and torsion theory.  The approach  of investigation involves obtaining  non-commutative interpretation of the  already known notions in the commutative setting; exploitation of dualities exhibited by some notions and algebraic interpretation of some geometric notions. 

AfOx Fellowship

David was an AfOx-Collaborative Fellow in 2017.

During his week AfOx fellowship in 2017, David was hosted by the Mathematical Institute and St Peter's College.
