I like studying the zeros of functions. Here's a list of my answers on the topic here on Math.SE. I also enjoy answering questions about asymptotics in general.

Check out my attempt to add real-time previews for comments here on Stack Exchange.

Also take a look at this problem sequence which guides the reader through an application of the saddle point method and derives the equation of the famous Szegő curve.
