J. E. Paguyo

J. E. Paguyo is a Britton Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Mathematics & Statistics at McMaster University, mentored by Shui Feng. He holds a PhD in Mathematics from the University of Southern California (supervised by Jason Fulman) and a BS in Mathematics from the University of California, Davis. His research focuses on probability and combinatorics, with a particular emphasis on limit theorems and random discrete structures. He describes himself as a 'West Coast Coin Flipper' and has an Erdős number of 3.

His research interests span the intersection of probability and combinatorics, including topics like random parking functions, hierarchical models, and stochastic processes. His recent work applies Stein's method to analyze limit theorems across various random structures. Notable themes in his articles include asymptotic behavior, cycle structures in discrete systems, and stochastic convergence in hierarchical models.

Paguyo's academic journey includes postdoctoral research at McMaster and prior education on the West Coast of the U.S. He is reachable at paguyoj@mcmaster.ca and typically resides in Hamilton Hall 311.
