Timothy M Hsu

Timothy M. Hsu is a Professor of Mathematics at San José State University. He holds a Ph.D. from Princeton University (1994). His research focuses on group theory, geometric group theory, combinatorics, and algebraic structures such as Artin groups, code loops, and modular subgroups. He has published extensively on topics including HNN extensions, residually finite groups, and quilt structures.

Key research themes include exploring non-positively curved group properties, finite group actions, and applications of combinatorial methods to algebraic problems. His work often intersects geometric, combinatorial, and algebraic approaches to group theory.

Publications highlight contributions to understanding quasiconvex subgroups, Moufang loops, and braid group actions. Though no awards are explicitly listed, his sustained scholarly output reflects significant contributions to pure mathematics.

Education: Doctor of Philosophy, Princeton University (1994).
