The William Reinhardt Memorial Lecture in the Philosophy of Mathematics was founded to commemorate the life of William Reinhardt, Professor of Mathematics at the University of Colorado from 1967 until his death in 1998. He did important work in set theory, logic, and the foundations of mathematics. A central focus of his work was the search for new axioms of mathematics. The study of new axioms in mathematics requires the ability to stand back from mathematical practice and ask questions about the general principles that guide and justify it -- questions that engage philosophical as well as mathematical issues. For this reason, Professor Reinhardt was considered a philosopher as well as a mathematician. He made profound contributions to the philosophy and foundations of mathematics.

The Reinhardt Lecture, which is co-sponsored by the Reinhardt Fund and the Department of Philosophy, brings a leading contemporary philosopher of mathematics to Boulder to give a talk on some topic in set theory, logic, or the foundations of mathematics.

The Math Department welcomes our new PostDocs in Fall 2024:

Charlotte Aten received her PhD from the University of Rochester in 2022 under the direction of Jonathan Pakianathan. Her research interests lie at the intersection of universal algebra, combinatorics, and category theory. She enjoys exploring connections with algebraic topology, computer science, and logic. Spencer Daugherty completed their PhD at North Carolina State University in 2024, advised by Laura Colmenarejo (NCSU) and Sarah Mason (WFU). Their research interests are enumerative and algebraic combinatorics, in particular, combinatorial Hopf algebras, quasisymmetric and noncommutative symmetric functions, the Tamari lattice, parking functions, and chromatic symmetric functions.
 Juan Villarreal received his PhD in 2018 at the Instituto de Matemática Pura e Aplicada in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, under the direction of Reimundo Heluani. His research interests include Lie groups, Lie algebras and their geometry with a focus on the study of infinite dimensional algebras and vertex algebras.

Deeley specializes in index theory and dynamical systems, and came to our department in 2017 as an assistant professor. He also won a three-year National Foundation Science Fellowship entitled: “C*-algebras associated to minimal and hyperbolic dynamical systems" starting August 2023. This supports Dr. Deeley's research on invariants used to study and classify highly abstract objects. The key properties of a useful invariant are that it is computable and distinguishes many different objects. For dynamical systems, an important class of mathematical objects, the construction of invariants can be very involved. Dr. Deeley will use this NSF funding to study invariants of dynamical systems defined via abstract operator algebras and K-theory. The project will also involve significant contributions from early-career researchers, graduate students, and undergraduate students, who will benefit from training through research involvement.
