This dissertation reports my rhetorical, multimodal genre analysis of research articles (RAs) in discrete mathematics and its pedagogical applications. The increasing demand on graduate students to publish their research in English and the need of these students to write in the key genres of...

Logicism is a thesis about the foundations of mathematics, roughly, that mathematics is derivable from logic alone. It is now widely accepted that the thesis is false and that the logicist program of the early 20th century was unsuccessful. Frege's [1893/1903] system was inconsistent and the...

SSHRC Awarded IG 2016: As technology continues to increase in importance, countries require skilled workers who can produce new ideas, provide new services, and construct new industries. The ability to create these outcomes will be determined by the effectiveness of programs in Mathematics and...

Atkin and Swinnerton-Dyer conjectured a simple characterization of those Fuchsian groups whose modular forms have integral Fourier coefficient. It has a natural and far-reaching generalization, which we will call the vASD conjecture, to vector-valued modular forms. We confirm vASD conjecture for...

A large portion of mathematics education research focuses on elementary and middle year’s content with professional development about how to teach mathematics often focused using specific tasks to teach certain topics. This kind of professional development makes it difficult for teachers to...

Performance of students with physical impairments in mathematics are often limited because of the use of hands-on strategies using manipulatives (e.g., blocks or Cuisenaire rods) to learn early concepts. Two assistive technology (AT) strategies have been used by students to handle manipulatives,...

In this note we consider the almost sure convergence (as ϵ→0) of solution Xϵ(·), defined over the interval 0 ≤ τ ≤ 1, of the random ordinary differential equation View the MathML source Here {F(x, t, ω), t ≥ 0} is a strong mixing process for each x and (x, t) → F(x, t, ω) is subject to regularity...

Primarily the conversation surrounding humanities computing has been mainly focused on defining the relationship between humanities computing and conventional humanities, while the relationship humanities computing has to computers, and by extension mathematics, has been mainly ignored. The...

SSHRC Awarded IG 2018: In this proposed research, I provide new economic insights on the trade-offs between efficiency gains and potential social costs in two concrete cases of technological development and new regulation: central bank digital currency (CBDC) and position limits. While these are...
