Mathematics and Statistics Research

Faculty in Â鶹´«Ã½â€™s Department of Mathematics and Statistics are leaders in research who publishing in leading journals and are invited to present their scholarly work to national and international audiences.

Mathematics research at SLU tends to fall in one of four areas:

Algebra

The algebra group includes faculty members with interests in group theory, representation theory, ring theory and finite dimensional algebras.

  • Russell Blyth, Ph.D.
  • Bryan Clair, Ph.D.
  • Charles Ford, Ph.D.
  • Benjamin Hutz, Ph.D.
  • David Jackson, Ph.D.
  • Greg Marks, Ph.D.
  • Michael May, S.J., Ph.D.
  • Julianne Rainbolt, Ph.D.
  • Ashish K Srivastava, Ph.D.

Analysis

Among our analysis group are faculty members interested in wavelets, Banach spaces, analytic functions, Lie group representations and analysis on symmetric spaces.

  • Bradley Currey, Ph.D.
  • Brody Johnson, Ph.D.
  • Darrin Speegle, Ph.D.

Differential Geometry

The differential geometry group is interested in hyperbolic and Lorentzian geometry, rank one Lie groups and relativity.

  • Stacey Harris, Ph.D.
  • James Hebda, Ph.D.
  • Kevin P. Scannell, Ph.D.
  • Carlos Vega, Ph.D.

Topology

The topology group has a wide variety of interests, with an emphasis on the topology of three-dimensional manifolds. Areas of specialty include hyperbolic three-manifolds, knot theory and foliations.

  • Anneke Bart, Ph.D.
  • John Cantwell, Ph.D.
  • Erin Wolf Chambers, Ph.D.
  • Bryan Clair, Ph.D.
  • Kimberly Druschel, Ph.D.
  • John Kalliongis, Ph.D.
  • Qayum Khan, Ph.D.
  • David Letscher, Ph.D.
  • Kevin P. Scannell, Ph.D.
  • Christine Stevens, Ph.D.
  • Michael Tsau, Ph.D.
