  Decision, control, and synthesis problems for discrete and continuous linear dynamical systems (using tools from number theory, Diophantine geometry, algebraic geometry) -- see this short research spiel
  Automated verification of real-time, probabilistic, and infinite-state systems (e.g. model-checking algorithms, synthesis problems, complexity)
  Logic and applications to verification
  Automated software analysis
  Concurrency
