Andrew S. Toms works in operator algebras, a branch of mathematics that studies infinite-dimensional generalizations of matrices called C*-algebras, and how they can be classified and understood through invariants like the Cuntz semigroup. His recent work focuses on structural and classification questions for these algebras, including their spectral properties and connections to homotopy theory (a way of studying shapes and spaces that can be continuously deformed into one another) and Schubert calculus (a classical area of algebraic geometry).

Publication output has been uneven over the last decade, with a large cluster of works in 2018, quiet gaps in several years, and a modest, steady trickle of one to a few papers per year from 2022 onward.
