Jacob Fox works on extremal combinatorics, Ramsey theory and algebraic and probabilistic methods in graph theory. His Stanford research page also identifies applications to computer science.[ref]
With David Conlon, Choongbum Lee and Benny Sudakov, he studied ordered Ramsey numbers. Requiring the vertices of a monochromatic copy to appear in a prescribed order can force superpolynomial growth even when the underlying graph is a matching.[ref]
