Hi,
I am Assistant Professor in the Department
of Mathematical Sciences at University
of Delaware in Newark,Delaware. I am interested in graph
theory and combinatorics
and their applications
to other areas of mathematics and science. We have an active Discrete
Mathematics group. I am organizing the Discrete
Math Seminar during the Spring
Semester 2013. If you would like to
give a talk, please let me know.
I
enjoy working with undergraduate and
graduate students. I am supervising
three Ph.D. students: Wiseley Wong,
Weiqiang
(Ricky) Li and Jason Vermette.
Wiseley Wong
has been my student since Spring 2010 and
has defended his Ph.D. Thesis Spanning
trees,
toughness and eigenvalues of graphs on
March 12, 2013.
In
2010-2011,
I supervised one M.Sc. student Michael Tait
who defended his M.Sc. Thesis The
Alon-Saks-Seymour and Rank-Coloring
Conjectures on April 20, 2011. Michael Tait is now a Ph.D.
student at the University
of California at San Diego.
Since
coming
at UD, I
have supervised the following bright
undergraduate research students: Michael Tait,
Patrick
Devlin, Dajun Lin,
and Michelle
Markiewitz.
If you are a student
who likes math, please drop by my office or
send me an email.
I was an NSERC
Postdoctoral
Fellow at University
of Toronto (June-December
2008, my mentor was Mike
Molloy) and at University
of California at San Diego
(February 2006-June 2008, my mentor was Fan
Chung). I had obtained a Ph.D. in
Math at Queen's
University at Kingston,
Canada
in 2005, a M.Sc. in Math at Queen's
in 2002 and a B.Sc. in Math/Computer
Science at University
of Bucharest, Romania
in 2000. My Ph.D. advisors were: David
Gregory, Ram
Murty,
David Wehlau. My
M.Sc. advisor was Dom
de Caen and my B.Sc. advisor was Ioan Tomescu.
At Queen's, I used to play soccer with the
famous (at least on a 1/4 mile radius around
Queen's campus) Mel's
Angels. It must have been because
of our
great
shirts.

to write this
about my soccer skills. |
