This photo was taken by Olle Swartling at 4:50 p.m. on July 25, 1969, from the
summit of Nevado Chinchey, 20,413', in the Cordillera Blanca, Peru. I'm on the
left; Steve Moore is on the right.

RESEARCH INTERESTS
My research interests are in commutative algebra and
representation theory.
Graham Leuschke's and my book Cohen-Macaulay Representations appeared in 2012, in the American Mathematical Society's Surveys and Monographs series.
(P)reprints of some of my PAPERS are
available, along with errata and commentary for the conscientious reader.
OTHER INTERESTS
I enjoy rock climbing and mountaineering (as you might guess
from the photo). Check out some more pictures taken on an ascent of the Longs Peak
Diamond during the summer of 2000. And here are some more recent pictures of
some climbing in Provence, in March, 2009. Back in my youth I did a few
100-mile trail runs. One such adventure was
the 1999 Hardrock
Endurance Run.
