A couple of fun diversions:
Click here to
see my mathematical genealogy (trace it back to Leibniz!
be sure to take the "Mott-Smith" branch when you reach Duffin).
Click here
to check out my collaboration distance to some famous people. (For example,
my Einstein and Feynman numbers are both 5).
[Just a note: I am not unusual in
these respects. Most math professors who got their Ph.D.s in the U.S. or Europe
these days can trace their mathematical
genealogy back to Newton or Leibniz. Most have a finite Einstein number,
meaning they coauthored a paper with someone who coauthored a paper with
someone...who coauthored a paper with Einstein.]
Regrettably, my
Erdos-Bacon number
seems to be infinite. Let me know if you want to shoot a movie with me as
an actor or extra!
