About

The last few years have brought a ramping back up to "research level", not having published since 1992 when I finished a Ph.D. in abelian group theory under Adolf Mader. As a graduate student, there was not enough time to pursue the areas of math which interested me the most (maybe it is more accurate to say I was not disciplined enough to focus more on math and less on surfing). The last 28 years the greatest priority was raising our daughters, Christina and Lenora, here in Hawaii where my real estate professional wife Leslie is from, where the median price of a home is US$800,000, and where I have been employed outside the academic research community, so I am happy to have eeked out enough time in the intervening years to learn line-by-line/problem-by-problem much of the mathematical work of Conway, Cohn, Rudin, Forster, and Taylor, and to have enjoyed thousands of hours mining the treasures of Shurman, Greenberg/Harper, Warner, Milnor, Hewitt/Ross, Hofmann/Morris, Ribes/Zalesskii, and Liu. But now that Christina (28) is halfway through a Doctor of Nursing Practice program at UMass and Lenora (27) is beginning a medical residency in radiology at the University of Chicago, there is finally time to do math! If you cannot find an upper bound to the number of hours awake sufficient to grow bored of doing math, please send me a note of concurrence at [email protected].
