The 4th Canada-Mexico-USA Conference in Representation Theory, Noncommutative Algebra, and Categorification will take place at Northeastern University June 9-12. There is funding available for graduate students and postdocs sites.google.com/view/canadausm…

I think my friend bOb cOeCke’s advertising is paying off. Time to study up on ZX-calculus. It’s string diagrams for quantum mechanics!

Very proud of this guy who successfully defended his thesis on “The structure and Higher Representation Theory of Odd Categorified sl(2)”.

Excited to be headed to our Simons Collaboration on New Structures in Low-dimensional topology annual meeting at the foundation in New York. google.com/url?q=https%3A… #simonsfoundation #uscmath

April is Math Month! 🎉 📐📊 🧮 We’re excited to celebrate the beauty & power of mathematics and share interesting stories related to USC Dornsife’s scholars, students and alumni. Follow us for some fun and engaging posts throughout the month! #Math Month

A four-dimensional universe may sound like science fiction, but it’s actually a mathematical extension of our 3D reality 😱. USC Dornsife's Aaron Lauda is leading a major initiative to study it. Learn more: bit.ly/3Kq8ZIq #Math Month

An interesting new read by my colleague Jason Fulman. #USCMath #USCDornsife bookstore.ams.org/view?ProductCo…

Looking forward to an exciting week studying the Amplituhedron at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Study. sites.google.com/view/amplituhe… #USCMath #DIAS

We had a great turn out at the Canada–Mexico–US Conference in Representation Theory, Noncommutative Algebra, and Categorification at the Centre de Recherches Mathematiques in Montreal. We may need to find a shorter name to stay inside the character limit. Thanks to U.S. National Science Foundation

Two tenure-track (TT) assistant professor positions and several non-TT positions in the USC Math Department at USC: mathjobs.org/jobs/list/23212 mathjobs.org/jobs/list/23213 Statisticians are welcome to apply!

Very happy to have this one out. Should be some exciting interactions between stable homotopy theory and categorification. Special congrats to postdoc Anne Dranowski and Meng Guo who are both on the market. arxiv.org/abs/2402.11368

This was a fun paper where we started off trying to do topological quantum computation and ended up proving a new result about the classical Burau representation. arxiv.org/abs/2402.13242

Jim Simons (1938–2024) was driven by curiosity. His lifelong passion for math and basic science led him to successful careers as a mathematician, investor and philanthropist. Read more about Jim’s life and work: simonsfoundation.org/2024/05/10/rem…

USC Department of Math has 3 tenure-track assistant professor openings, in all fields of mathematics, applied mathematics, and *mathematical statistics*! mathjobs.org/jobs?joblist-2… Great opportunity to join a growing mathematical, statistical, and computational research community!

Quantum computing could transform medicine, energy, and AI. But qubits are unstable, error-prone, and hard to tame. Simons Foundation & USC found a fix - in a particle others had thrown away. today.usc.edu/mathematicians…

There are only about 100 quantum computers in the world. At USC Viterbi School, Daniel Lidar is making them reliable enough to transform medicine, energy, logistics, and more. viterbischool.usc.edu/news/2025/08/l…
