Jacob Russell

I am a Visiting  Assisant Professor in the Mathematics & Statistics Department at Swarthmore College.

Previously, I was an NSF postdoctoral fellow and G. C. Evans Instructor of Mathematics at Rice University. 

I received my  PhD from the CUNY Graduate Center in June of 2020. My advisor was Jason Behrstock. 

My research focuses on understanding the large scale geometry of finitely generated groups with features reminiscent of negative curvature.
