John Yin

About:

I am John Yin, a fifth year PhD student at University of Wisconsin, Madison. I study mathematics with a focus in number theory. My advisor is Jordan Ellenberg. 

My areas of interest are in arithmetic statistics and arithmetic geometry. More specifically, I like to count points on various schemes/stacks, looking at p-adic densities, and looking at asymptotics in p (such as looking at statistics of numerical invariants of varieties mod p as p grows). I am also interested in the application of logic to number theory, and applications of number theory/algebraic geometry to computer algorithms. 

Here is my CV (updated 9/28/23).

Here is my Github. It contains the code for finding density of polynomials over local fields generating an etale extension with specified splitting type (not optimized).
