Stefan Catoiu

Stefan Catoiu serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences within DePaul University's College of Science and Health. A full-time faculty member since 1999, he holds a PhD in Mathematics from the University of Wisconsin-Madison (1997).

His academic journey includes:

• PhD in Mathematics, University of Wisconsin-Madison (1997), advisor: Donald Passman
• Visiting Assistant Professor, Temple University (1997-1999)

Dr. Catoiu's research is deeply rooted in pure mathematics, with primary interests in Noncommutative Algebra, Real Analysis, Geometry, and Number Theory. His noncommutative algebra work explores representation theory and quantum groups, while his analysis research focuses on generalized derivatives. In geometry, he studies convex and quantum Euclidean structures, and in number theory, he examines zeta functions and Diophantine equations.

Analysis of his recent publications (2017-2022) reveals a concentration on real analysis (particularly generalized derivatives) and geometry (convex polygons and the pentagonal pizza conjecture), often in collaboration with J. M. Ash and A. Berele. His work bridges theoretical concepts with practical geometric problems.
