In Spring 2025 I am teaching:
MATH 408 - Mathematical Cryptology. We will use the textbook, "An Introduction to Mathematical Cryptography", by Jeffrey Hoffstein, Jill Pipher, and Joseph Silverman. We will also use references available over the internet: in particular, the Handbook of Applied Cryptography by Alfred J. Menezes, Paul C. van Oorschot and Scott A. Vanstone. If you have questions, you may contact me by e-mail. I check my mail regularly, so this is an excellent way to reach me, and I am always happy to hear from you.
MATH 465 - Differential Geometry. We will be using a textbook entitled, "Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces, Revised and Updated Second Edition, by Manfredo Do Carmo." This course studies the geometry of curves and surfaces in Euclidean space: intrinsic and extrinsic geometry, curvature, structural equations of Riemannian geometry, and the Gauss-Bonnet theorem.
