Discrete Dynamical Systems, Math 2030 , meets 1:40-2:40 on Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays in 285 Lockett Hall. Here is a link to a 20 minute introduction to Mathematica. You will not need all this but may find it useful in your other work.
Topology 2 (Homology Theory), Math 7512, meets 11:40-12:40 on Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays in 243 Lockett Hall
Here is some information about my past and current Phd. students
Research:
Research Interests:
- knot theory and low-dimensional topology
- topological quantum field theory
- topology of real algebraic curves
Here is my research publication list.
Some of my recent preprints were posted on the Mathematics ArXiv . The published versions of these papers contain
subsequent changes not reflected in the preprints.
Here is a PDF file of a mathematica notebook which extends a list of 3-manifolds with small Frohman Kania-Bartoszynska ideals in the paper.
