    My research interests are in real analysis; this Wikipedia article explains what that term means generally. Former students are always welcome to write to me to let me know how much (or little) they enjoyed my courses over the years and to keep me posted on their careers.

    My Erd�s number is 2 along with the 6984 other people who share this “distinction.” My Albert Einstein number would be 4, my Stephen Hawking number is 5, and my David Hilbert number is 6 (i.e., just about as large as possible). [If you don't know what an Erd�s number is then consult here.]
