Departmental Research

The Department of Mathematics has an internationally recognized faculty and an active postdoctoral program, conducting research in both pure and applied mathematics. Research areas include algebraic coding theory, algebraic geometry, algebraic K-theory, combinatorics, commutative algebra, control theory, differential equations, dynamical systems, functional integration, geometric group theory, low-dimensional topology, mathematical biology, mathematical modeling, mathematics education, operator algebras, partial differential equations, and semigroup theory.

See our areas section for a more detailed look at our research. For a partial list of recent grants faculty have recieved, vist our grants section.

We have hosted numerous programs and events. Some of these are:

Allan Peterson: Discrete hamiltonian systems
Allan Peterson is a co-author of this research monograph on discrete Hamiltonian systems. This research monograph gives an up-to-date summary of many important results in discrete mathematics including matrix difference equations, discrete variational theory, sympletic systems, Hamiltonian systems, and continued fractions. For more information see Allan Peterson's webpage or Kluwer Academic Publishers webpage for this book.
