The Mathematics Department welcomes its newest faculty member, Dr. Gabriel Montoya Vega! Gabriel Montoya Vega, originally from Barranquilla, Colombia, earned his bachelor’s degree in mathematics from the Universidad del Atlántico, a master’s from the University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez, and a Ph.D. from The George Washington University under Professor Józef H. Przytycki. His research focuses on knot theory, including link invariants, skein modules, and Gram determinants, and he has presented his work at renowned institutes such as the Institut Henri Poincaré (France), Oberwolfach (Germany), RIMS (Japan), and the Alfréd Rényi Institute (Hungary). After completing his NSF-Ascend Postdoctoral Fellowship at…
