Chris Connell works in geometry and topology, studying the shapes of curved spaces (manifolds) and how rigid their structure is. A central theme is understanding when spaces with 'nonpositive curvature' must have specific geometric properties, using tools like simplicial volume and volume entropy. The work often connects the geometry of spaces to the algebraic structure of the symmetry groups (lattices in Lie groups) acting on them.
