Currently, I am looking for full-time dedicated students:
> with a good background in probability and computer science for research projects on applications of
methods of statistical mechanics in computer science.
> with a good background in algebra (in particular category theory) for some theoretical research projects
related to quantization and quantum field theory in discrete spaces.
> with a good background in graph theory for research projects on applications of discrete spectral geometry
and Markov chain methods in graph theory.
> with a good background in theory of computation for a research project on foundations of AI.
If you are already my student:
> Generally interesting
- Randy Pausch's "Time Management"
> Use the following sources to learn how to write a scientific text correctly
- Style guide for writing mathematical proofs
- Wikipedia: Manual of style/mathematics
- Mark Tomforde, Mathematical writing: a brief guide
- Kevin P. Lee, A guide to writing mathematics
- The grammar according to West
- Mathematical writing for undergraduate students
- Writing for Computer Science
- How to Write a Better Thesis
- How to Write a Better Minor Thesis
- Writing for Computer Science
- How to Write a Better Thesis
- Mathematical writing for undergraduate students
> Use the following sources to learn how to give a good scientific lecture
- Alan Slomson, What makes a good maths lecture?
- John E. McCarthy, How to give a good colloquium
- Paul Halmos, How to talk mathematics
- Matilde Marcolli, The art of giving talks
> The following may help you to broaden your view of mathematical sciences.
