Teaching (Spring semester, 2013):

Math 650: Algebra I

Research Interests:

finite fields and applications.
polynomials over finite fields, particularly their roles in projective geometry, information security and combinatorics.
construction and classification of cartesian groups, quasifields and semifields.
group theory, particularly automorphism groups of combinatorial and algebraic objects, and the interrelated problems of isotopy of algebraic objects and isomorphism of projective planes.

Seminars in Discrete Mathematics/Algebra.

The department runs a discrete mathematics/algebra seminar series.
If you are interested in visiting our department and giving a talk, please contact one of the members of the discrete mathematics group.

The following students have so far had the extreme wisdom (i.e. been foolish enough) to work with me on their PhDs:

Todd Gutekunst (completed May 08, now at King's College)
Pamela Kosick (completed Dec 09, now at Stockton College)
Chris Castillo, (current, still here at UD)
