Dr. McGinn's research focuses on core areas of pure mathematics, particularly Analytic and Algebraic Number Theory and Combinatorics. His work explores deep problems such as solutions to Markoff equations, structural properties of graphs via friendly index sets, and combinatorial challenges in constructing and counting Latin squares—objects of significance in design theory and cryptography. His research bridges theoretical inquiry with discrete mathematical structures.
Although no recent publications are listed in the provided text, his keywords suggest sustained engagement with number-theoretic Diophantine problems and combinatorial configurations. This indicates a research trajectory centered on discrete algebraic systems and their symmetries.
