John Stembridge
Appearance
John Stembridge is a Professor of Mathematics at University of Michigan[1]. He received his Ph.D. from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1985 with his Dissertation called Combinatorial Decompositions of Characters of SL(n,C).[2]
Research
His research interests are in combinatorics, with particular emphasis on the following areas:
- Topics related to algebra, especially representation theory
- Coxeter groups and root systems
- Enumerative combinatorics
- Symmetric functions
- Hypergeometric series and q-series
- Computational problems and algorithms in algebra
He was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2000 for work in Combinatorial aspects of root systems and Weyl characters..
He is one of the participants in the Atlas of Lie Groups and Representations.[3]
He has written Maple packages that can be used for computing symmetric functions, posets, root systems, and finite Coxeter groups.[4]
