Patrick K. McFaddin



Welcome!

I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Fordham University (Lincoln Center). I received my Ph.D. from the University of Georgia under the supervision of Danny Krashen. After that, I was a Visiting Research Assistant Professor at the University of South Carolina working under the supervision of Matt Ballard.

My research is centered around algebra and algebraic geometry: algebraic K-theory, derived categories, algebraic cycles, motives and motivic cohomology, central simple algebras, algebraic groups, homogeneous and toric varieties, and Galois cohomology. I am also interested in categorical approaches to metric and geometric topology.

I serve as the advisor for the Mathematics and Computer & Information Sciences Major and the 3-2 Combined Engineering Program at Lincoln Center. This semester (Fall 2024), I am teaching Math 1100 (Finite Mathematics) and Math 1108 (Math for Business: Finite).
