Robert Lipshitz

I am a faculty member in the Mathematics Department at the University of Oregon.

Research

I am a topologist. More specifically, I work mainly on applications of symplectic geometry to low-dimensional topology. More details on my research are available here. A list of recent and upcoming talks is here. Slides from some of my past talks are here.
