معرفی
Carl Wang-Erickson is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Pittsburgh, affiliated with The Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences. His research focuses on number theory, particularly the interplay between Galois representations and automorphic forms as predicted by the Langlands conjectures. He employs advanced tools from algebraic geometry, such as p-adic interpolation, moduli spaces, and homotopical algebra. His work includes studies on non-Gorenstein structures, Eisenstein ideals, and derived deformation theory.
Education: PhD in Mathematics from Harvard University and MASt in Mathematics from the University of Cambridge.
Research interests revolve around foundational questions in number theory, including:
- Modular forms and their Galois representations
- Moduli spaces of Galois representations
- p-adic L-functions and their computational aspects
- Applications of A-infinity algebras to deformation theory
Recent publications (2023–2025) address topics like non-Gorenstein structures, critical base-change p-adic L-functions, and community engagement programs in STEM education. His 2023 work with Pitt Seed highlights academic outreach initiatives.
No scientific awards explicitly listed. Advising and grants: No specific grants or advisees are mentioned, though his 2023 article references Pitt Seed funding for community programs.
Lab/Team Affiliations: Not explicitly stated, but his research aligns with the Mathematics Research Center at the University of Pittsburgh.
