Background

Dikran Karagueuzian's research for the past few years has been primarily in the representations and cohomology of finite groups. 

He has been studying problems in algebra that arise from techniques of algebraic topology. Sometimes. there is a theorem hidden behind the feasibility of a well-known method. An example of this phenomenon is his most recent preprint, written in collaboration with Peter Symonds of the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. In this case the theorem was uncovered through exploration with the computer algebra package Magma. Often, such software lets us investigate mathematical phenomena that would be very difficult to understand otherwise.
