Peter Samuelson

I am an associate professor of mathematics at UC Riverside. My research centers around the intersection of representation theory and low-dimensional topology, and includes objects such as Hecke algebras, Hall algebras, character varieties, and knot invariants.

Here is a link to my CV.

If you are a student, all materials for all my classes are on eLearn.

My email address is "psamuels", a common symbol, then ``ucr.edu''.

I sometimes organize the Lie Theory Seminar at UCR, and that page has schedules, titles, and abstracts, both old and (sometimes) new.

Carl Mautner and I organized a conference at UC Riverside December 14-16.
