Finished a degree in mathematics from Oregon State University, in 1986. Doctoral from University of Colorado, Boulder, 1995.
Some math:
My thesis:
An abstraction did in Sasebo, Japan, not quite the same as my original thesis, as I loosened a topological requirement — slightly more abstract (.pdf file). Summer 1996, plus some work afterward. In my mind, is superior to my original thesis.
Also see Various Math, mostly for fun.
