معرفی
Sherry Gong is an Assistant Professor at Texas A&M University, affiliated with the Department of Mathematics in the College of Arts & Sciences. Her research spans low-dimensional topology via gauge theory, operator theory, and non-commutative geometry. She explores monopole/instanton Floer homologies, their connections to Khovanov homologies, and properties of group C*-algebras, particularly in K-theory.
Her teaching includes advanced courses such as Algebraic Topology II, Modern Algebra, and the Putnam Challenge. She actively engages in mathematical outreach, co-founding the PreMa high school research program and the G2 (Girls Together) Math Program. She also contributes to the Texas A&M Math Circle and serves on editorial boards for competitions like the AIME and USA(J)MO.
Gong’s work bridges topology and algebra, with recent publications addressing scalar curvature in spectral sequence cobordisms and torsion orders in Floer homologies. Her earlier work includes studies on Poisson traces and computational approaches to symplectic groups.
She has volunteered with BEAM LA to support underrepresented students and led teams in international competitions like the European Girls' Math Olympiad. Her research and teaching reflect a commitment to advancing mathematical rigor and accessibility.
