معرفی
Christopher O'Neill is an Associate Professor in the Mathematics and Statistics Department at San Diego State University. Previously, he held postdoctoral positions as an Arthur J. Krener Assistant Professor at the University of California Davis and a Visiting Assistant Professor at Texas A&M University.
His primary research focuses on numerical semigroups, Kunz polyhedron, and related algebraic structures. Dr. O'Neill frequently incorporates computational tools like Sage, GAP, and Macaulay2 into his mathematical research, bridging theoretical mathematics with practical software implementation.
Dr. O'Neill has developed numerous software packages for mathematical research including acm-sage for arithmetical congruence monoids, affinesgps-sage for cone decompositions of affine semigroups, and kunzpolyhedron for the Kunz polyhedron. His computational work demonstrates a strong integration of theoretical mathematics with practical software development.
He is actively involved in academic service including organizing the Semigroups, Generating functions, and Polytopes (SGPs) Research Seminar, serving on the SDSU Mathematics and Statistics Department Colloquium committee, and participating in conferences focused on algebra and discrete mathematics.
Dr. O'Neill advises undergraduate researchers through the SDSU Mathematics REU program and has demonstrated commitment to supporting underrepresented students in mathematics through his involvement with the Underrepresented Students in Topology and Algebra Research Symposium.
