معرفی
Dr. Allysa Lumley is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at York University's Faculty of Science. Her research focuses on analytic number theory, particularly the distribution of prime numbers and values of L-functions over number and function fields. She holds a Doctorate in Pure Mathematics from York University (2019), a Master's from the University of Lethbridge (2014), and a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics (2010).
As a faculty member, she teaches undergraduate mathematics courses and currently serves as Faculty Sponsor for the York University student chapter of the Association for Women in Mathematics. Recent teaching includes Math 1013/1014 courses before her 2023 maternity leave. Her research explores explicit bounds for L-functions, Chebyshev theta functions, and primes in short intervals, with publications in journals like the Journal of the London Mathematical Society and Acta Arithmetica.
Education:
- PhD, Pure Mathematics (Analytic Number Theory), York University, 2019
- MSc, Pure Mathematics, University of Lethbridge, 2014
- BSc, Mathematics, University of Lethbridge, 2010
Research Interests: Analytic number theory methods applied to distribution problems of primes and L-functions. Specializes in explicit results, zero density estimates, and distribution of values in both number and function field settings. Current work emphasizes asymmetrical distributions in cubic L-functions and Selberg-style central limit theorems in function field contexts.
Teaching & Service: Teaches calculus and introductory mathematics courses. Active in promoting gender equity in STEM through her role with the Association for Women in Mathematics. Recent teaching leaves accommodate family commitments while maintaining research output.
