reetings! I am a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Kentucky. |
I am a member of the Discrete Mathematics group in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Kentucky.
I have been awarded a five year Simons Foundation Collaboration grant beginning July 2011.
During the academic year 2010-2011, I was a Member in the School of Mathematics at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.
For Spring 2011 I have been awarded a University of Kentucky Tenured Professor Benefit by the Dean of Arts & Sciences.
During the academic year 2006-2007, I was on sabbatical leave at MIT.
Richard Ehrenborg and I are the founders and organizers of the Math Movie of the Month.
My research interests are in algebraic combinatorics and discrete geometry.
Arthur F. Readdy, Jr. (March 4, 1928 - March 2, 2008)
I am the organizer of the Discrete CATS Seminar (where CATS = Combinatorics Algebra Topology and Statistics!) This was formerly the University of Kentucky Algebraic Combinatorics Seminar.
I am also a co-organizer of the UK WILDCATS Seminar .
