James F. Davis works in pure mathematics, specifically topology, which studies the properties of shapes and spaces that stay the same under continuous deformation. His research focuses on manifolds (higher-dimensional spaces) and questions about their structure, symmetry, and classification, using tools from algebraic and geometric topology.
