Mark Brittenham is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL). He teaches courses such as Math 107H (Calculus II) and Math 856 (Introduction to Smooth Manifolds), with office hours listed for Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. His primary professional email is mbrittenham2@unl.edu, though older addresses remain functional.
His research focuses on low-dimensional topology, including knot theory, 3-manifolds, laminations, and foliations. He maintains a dedicated webpage for resources in this field, with links to his vita and research plans (extracted from an NSF proposal). While specific scientific awards or student advisement records are not detailed in the provided texts, his academic collaborations and publications are referenced in the context of his Erdős number (≤4) and co-authored work with Ying-Qing Wu on Dehn surgery classifications.
