Teaching and research interests:

Permutation Group Theory: Particularly interested in infinite permutation groups, their normal subgroup structure, conjugacy classes and subgroups which satisfy certain properties of cardinality. Some results obtained in this field are being brought to completion.

Other interests: Amalgamation in varieties of groups; behaviour of absolute retracts in varieties of groups.
