From
Autumn Kent’s research currently focuses on the interaction of algebra, geometry, and topology in and around the subject of moduli of Riemann surfaces. Specifically, she is working on problems related to effective geometrization of 3-manifolds via Thurston’s skinning map, subgroups of mapping class groups and the geometry of the corresponding surface group extensions, and the congruence subgroup problem for mapping class groups.
