Congratulations to Mark Marino on being named recipient of UB's 2025 Academic Integrity Award. Marino was recognized for going above and beyond in promoting a culture of integrity at UB. Marino recently received the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Teaching.

April 23, 24 and 25, 2024: Join us for the Myhill Lecture Series: Forty Years of Four Manifolds, featuring Tomasz Mrowka (MIT). Since the twin breakthroughs in 1982-83 by Freedman and Donaldson the study of four manifolds has been developing rapidly. Freedman’s work showed that the homeomorphism problem for 4-dimensional manifolds was largely under control provided the fundamental group of the 4-manifold was not too complicated. Donaldson’s surprising applications of the Yang-Mills equations hinted that the situation for smooth structures was more complicated and that the tools for studying 4-manifolds would come from diverse parts of mathematics. These three lectures will survey a number of the developments that occurred in the ensuing 40 years.

Recently, some of our graduate students took a moment to have a group photo with staff. The Department of Mathematics is proud of our graduate students for their dedication and hard work. We wish them all the best in their future endeavors.

The Department of Mathematics is pleased to announce that Danielle Tear has been named Outstanding Senior 2025 by UB College of Arts. She graduates summa cum laude with a bachelor of arts in mathematics as a part of the UB Teach mathematics combined degree program. Tear is a UB Presidential Scholar and recipient of the Harry Merrill Geham Scholarship. She is a teaching assistant for the Department of Mathematics and played the cello in the UB Symphony Orchestra. In the fall, Tear will begin her student teaching residency in pursuit of a master's degree in mathematics education with a secondary certification in computer science. 

The Department of Mathematics is pleased to announce that Alexander Bivolcic has been awarded the 麻豆传媒o's 2025 Excellence in Teaching Award for Graduate Student Teaching Assistants.

The UB Department of Mathematics is pleased to congratulate the winner of the 2024 Summer Math Scholarship, Jack Mills. The award includes a stipend in the range of $4,000. Mills, together with faculty mentor Dr. Johanna Mangahas,  formulated an undergraduate research project aimed at understanding Mesa paths in the hyperbolic plane.
