Danul K. Gunatilleka

Danul K. Gunatilleka is a Lecturer in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Maryland, College Park. His research focuses on Model Theory, particularly on generic structures constructed via Fraïssé limits with strong substructure constraints.

• PhD: University of Maryland, 2019
• Master of Science: Louisiana State University, 2012
• Bachelors Degree: University of Colombo, Sri Lanka, 2010

Gunatilleka's work explores the intersection of Model Theory and generic structures, emphasizing amalgamation and joint embedding properties. His research applies Hrushovski's methods to control theories of Fraïssé limits, notably in Baldwin-Shi hypergraphs.

His publications highlight trends in Model Theory, focusing on the classification of countable models and atomic models within Baldwin-Shi hypergraphs. These studies contribute to understanding strong substructures and their impact on model-theoretic properties.

Gunatilleka teaches courses including Calculus I (Math 140), Calculus II (Math 141H), and Linear Algebra (Math 240). He previously served as a sole contact instructor for Math 113 and Math 120.
