Emil Daniel Schwab

Emil Daniel Schwab is a Professor of Mathematics in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), College of Science. He previously served as Associate Dean for Research (2014-2015) and held administrative roles at University of Oradea, Romania (1996-1998).

Education:

• Ph.D. in Mathematics, "Babes-Bolyai" University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania (1995). Thesis: "Contribution to the Study of Multiplicativity and Additivity in Incidence Algebras".
• Licentiate in Mathematics, West University of Timisoara, Romania (1987). Thesis: "Inverses in Special Categories".

Dr. Schwab's research bridges algebra, number theory, and combinatorics through categorical techniques, focusing on Möbius inversion, inverse semigroups, arithmetical functions, and quantum logic. His work demonstrates deep connections between abstract algebraic structures and combinatorial frameworks, with significant contributions to incidence algebras and categorical logic.

His 15 most recent publications (2011-2016) reveal consistent exploration of semigroup theory, Möbius categories, and Dirichlet convolution variants, showing increasing integration of categorical methods with number-theoretic applications.
