Physicist at NIST Boulder, views are my own.
Excited to share our new paper! We prove that Lieb’s permanental dominance conjecture, which has been open for over half a century, is equivalent to a certain conjecture about the bunching behavior of bosons.

Measuring Multiparticle Indistinguishability with the Generalized Bunching Probability
The indistinguishability of many bosons undergoing passive linear transformations followed by number basis measurements is fully characterized by its visible state. However, measuring all of the param...

I wrote an op-ed on the world-class STEM research ecosystem in the United States, and how this ecosystem is now under attack on multiple fronts by the current administration: newsletter.ofthebrave.org/p/im-an-awar...
I’m an award-winning mathematician. Trump just cut my funding.
The “Mozart of Math” tried to stay out of politics. Then it came for his research.
