Matthew Weaver

Matthew Weaver is an Assistant Teaching Professor in the School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at Arizona State University. Previously, he was a postdoc at the University of Notre Dame and a graduate student at Purdue University, where he earned his Ph.D. in 2022 under Bernd Ulrich. His research focuses on commutative algebra, particularly Rees algebras of ideals and modules, with applications to algebraic geometry and implicitization problems in applied sciences.

Education:

• B.S., Purdue University, 2015
• Ph.D., Purdue University, 2022

Research Interests: Commutative Algebra, Algebraic Geometry, Rees Algebras, Syzygy Techniques, Applications to Applied Sciences. His work explores the structural properties of Rees algebras and their roles in algebraic geometry, including their use in solving implicitization problems arising in interdisciplinary fields.

Awards: None explicitly mentioned.

Advising/Grants: Advised by Bernd Ulrich during his PhD. No grants mentioned in the provided texts.
