Research and teaching interests

Foundations

Temporal generation

Source dynamics, the relationship between inner generation and outer completion, and the construction of useful physical observables.

Physics

Geometry, phase and matter

Spatial emergence, quantum phase, clocks, spectral constructions and the interpretation of physical constants.

History & philosophy

Ibn al-Arabi and cosmology

Time, perpetual renewal, unity and multiplicity, with related translations and comparative studies.
