Teaching

  • Introduction to Algebra (In MAM2): Set theory; mappings; binary operations; equivalence relations and order; groups.
  • Introduction to Analysis (In MAM2): Real numbers; open and closed intervals; sequences and series (convergence); functions of a real variable (continuity, limit); series of functions; Taylor series.
  • Discrete Mathematics (in MAT 315): Arithmetic, Combinatorics, Graph Theory.
  • Algebraic Graph Theory: An honours course on graphs, their adjacency matrices, Laplacian matrices, characteristic polynomials and spectrum.
  • Honours Projects: Topics on Algebra, graph theory, combinatorics and their applications are available. Contact me for more details.
  • Experimental Mathematics (2016,2017,2019) at the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS): The course ilustrates how mathematical ideas evolve from experimental observations to theorems. It involves Number Theory, Linear Algebra, Probability, Graph Theory, and it uses SAGE.
