Abstract: At Rutgers University-Camden, the student body is quite diverse, with many first-generation college students and students from underrepresented minority groups. Our students face financial challenges - a significantly large fraction of...

Abstract: Davenport’s lemma has been a crucial ingredient in recent applications of geometry of numbers to arithmetic statistics. The lemma estimates, with error-term, the number of lattice points contained in bounded semi-algebraic regions of $...

Abstract:  We face financial choices every day. From buying a morning coffee, to an online shopping errand in the afternoon, we are asked “Cash, Credit or Debit?” and “Pay Now or Later?”  We occasionally face bigger decisions, like whether to take...

Abstract:  Susan D’Agostino earned a PhD in mathematics at Dartmouth College, taught for years as a tenured mathematics professor, and subsequently left academe for science journalism. Her math and science stories have since been published in The...

Abstract A classical theorem of Neukirch and Uchida says that number fields are completely determined by their absolute Galois groups. One might wonder about analogous results for algebraic varieties: in what situations can varieties be...

Abstract: Being a scientist or mathematician can be challenging, and being a minority mathematician even more so. My path hasn’t always been easy, but it has been worthwhile and fulfilling. However, in some sense, I believe that I ended up where I...

Abstract: The twenty years between when I started college and my first visit to IAS saw great changes in opportunities for women in mathematics, as in most professions. Concurrent with this was the birth of a new field of global or geometric...
