Research
Never trust the brute-force power of a computer network to do the job of a
combinatorialist.

My research interests are combinatorial structures: block designs
(especially Steiner 2-designs), Latin squares, finite geometries and
various finite configurations. I am particularly interested in
algorithmic and constructive problems about such objects. Lately I also
got interested in non-associative algebraic structures (certain classes of
quasigroups). Here is a publication list with links to the papers:
I maintain several web pages related to my research.
