Dylan P. Thurston works in pure mathematics, focusing on the study of shapes and spaces (topology) and the algebraic tools used to describe them. A major thread of the work develops and applies Heegaard Floer homology, a set of invariants used to distinguish and understand three-dimensional spaces, alongside related work on curves, graphs, and algebraic structures.
