But I don't mind talking about stuff.
A long time ago, back when the surface of the Earth was still molten, I got tenure based on my work on certain nonlinear hyperbolic PDE. More recently I've dabbled in 'graph Laplacians', which are a kind of discrete version of a Laplacian that you can automatically attach to any finite graph.
I have a friend Robert Kotiuga who is deeply interested in discrete versions of Maxwell's equations. The sign on his research's group lab was something like "Functorial Electromagnetics Lab", which I like.
