Since 1964 and until 2007 he collaborated on the characterization of abelian categories with the well-known French mathematician Pierre Gabriel. His areas of expertise were: Category theory, abelian categories with Applications to Rings and Modules, Adjoint Functors and limits/colimits, Theory of Rings, Fields and Polynomials, and Valuation Theory; he also has interests and published in the following areas: Algebraic Topology, Algebraic Geometry, Commutative Algebra, K-Theory, Class-Field theory, and Algebraic Function Theory.
