George J. Schaeffer
I am a fifth year graduate student in mathematics at UC Berkeley, and this is my (rather bare-bones) webpage.
Research
My research lies principally within the field of computational number theory. More specifically, I am interested in computational problems related to mod p modular forms and their associated Galois representations (Serre's conjecture), elliptic curve cryptography, and the enumeration/construction of number fields with specified invariants. My dissertation advisor is Akshay Venkatesh.
My research statement is available here. Slides from a recent talk are here.
In the past I have done research on algebraic factorization theory, mainly in collaboration with Scott T. Chapman, Paul Baginski, and the algebra group at Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz, Austria.
A list of my publications (with links!) is forthcoming. For now, please refer to my CV.
