Research Interests: Wayne’s research and writing center on algebra, number theory, and topology. He has produced extensive essays on topics such as Galois theory, Dedekind domains, freely representable groups, and the foundations of mathematics. His work often bridges abstract concepts with accessible frameworks for graduate and advanced undergraduate students.
Article Trends: His recent and ongoing publications include translations with commentary (e.g., Emil Artin’s L-series), expository guides on number systems and topology, and in-depth reports on algebraic structures. These works emphasize logical rigor, historical context, and pedagogical utility.
Collaborations: He has co-authored works with L. Holt (on number systems) and F. Lemmermeyer (on the Hasse principle). His expository projects include translations, worksheets, and multi-part topology reviews.
Future Projects: He plans to expand his writings to cover topics like Naive class theory (NBG set theory) and further foundational areas such as category theory and geometry.
