My research area is Algebraic Geometry.
I'm currently working on surfaces of general type.
I use Macaulay 2.

Recent pdf talk: A 4-dimensional deformation of tertiary Burniat surfaces, Guiyang, China

I'm a member of FCT projects Geometria Algébrica em Portugal (PTDC/MAT/099275/2008) and Espaços de Moduli em Geometria Algébrica (PTDC/MAT/111332/2009).

I'm a member of Projecto Delfos,
within which I run Liga D'Elfos.
