daveyinaz, I'm from Bangladesh. I actually wanted to ask that if it is possible for me to have PhD on Algorithmic Algebra or Computational Number theory without taking courses in Abstract algebra, Analysis and Topology

will a GRE subject test in Math be useful? somebody please enlighten me...

I am currently a CS undergrad. my university offers no courses in Abstract algebra or Number theory or Topology or Analysis. recently I have got interested in Number theory in Discrete math course. moreover I was and still am interested in algebra too. but the problem is, can I apply to CS grad...

thanks a lot chiro. but now one thing I can't understand that, if one has got few papers in pure math though he has PhD in CS, is he eligible to join math department as faculty?

I actually can't understand whether I should post this under Academic guidance and am confused about the title I've used too. anyway, I am just curious to know what a CS professor would do if he gets interested in some branch of Pure Math, let's say, Group theory or Analytic Number theory or...

mrb, thank you very much for your valuable advice and encouragement. Combinatorics is actually not for me and I am interested in Algebra, Complex analysis and Representation theory (very soon I shall choose one of them)

Thanks everyone. Cod, I've also found this information in many university's website...I shall also apply to them...but I am also thinking over what mrb said. iratern, I live in Bangladesh. mrb, you're right. No guidance is available to me. But I do self study (learned Calculus 3, Linear algebra...

ZeroZero2, thank you, but my current financial condition is not good. Moreover my result is not good to transfer credit or to receive a scholarship JasonMode, thank you, I'm also thinking of a MS in Math. I actually want to know if I have some research paper in Math can I apply for PhD in pure...

Somebody please enlighten me...

I am unsure there is any thread similar to this. Today in morning I was making a thread but I can not find it. Anyway, When I enrolled to CSE I was crazy about it but gradually I found myself in love of Math and I also found I am actually not good in CSE but in Math. I read in the best uni of my...

Until November 2009 I didn't think about becoming a mathematician. I was interested in Physics, Electronics and Computer science. However, I learned basics of Calculus, Analytical geometry, Mechanics, Discrete Math, Algebra, Trigonometry myself. I found learning Math does not actually depend on...

Euler, Abel, Gauss, Galois, Weierstrass, Eisenstein, Riemann, Dirichlet, Roch, Hilbert, Klein, Ramanujan, Erdos, Serre, Milnor, Wiles, Thurston and all other greats were born as human like us. I believe they are never bored in Math. That's why they are great. I think their love for Math made...

One of my friend can not understand class. Whatever he does is reflection of his self study (All of his teachers say he is the most brilliant student they have ever taught). He learned geometry from a book similar to Euclid's Element by himself. He says about self study, "to wander in the path...

I just wanted to say that different people learn in different way.

I believe different approach should be taken by different people to learn Math as we all have different ideas. As I studied biography of great mathematicians I found their learning approach are different. Gauss, Erdos, Jacobi, Abel, Galois, Ramanujan, Neumann, Riemann, Euler all are great but...
