A post of @11011110 has reminded me that (after a year and a half lurking here) it's never too late for me to toot and pin an intro here.

I am a Canadian mathematician in the Netherlands, and I have been based at the University of Amsterdam since 2022. I also have some rich and longstanding ties to the UK, France, and Japan.

My interests are somewhere in the nexus of Combinatorics, Probability, and Algorithms. Specifically, I like graph colouring, random graphs, and probabilistic/extremal combinatorics. I have an appreciation for randomised algorithms, graph structure theory, and discrete geometry.

Around 2020, I began taking a more active role in the community, especially in efforts towards improved fairness and openness in science. I am proud to be part of a team that founded the journal, Innovations in Graph Theory (igt.centre-mersenne.org/), that launched in 2023. (That is probably the main reason I joined mathstodon!) I have also been a coordinator since 2020 of the informal research network, A Sparse (Graphs) Coalition (sparse-graphs.mimuw.edu.pl/), devoted to online collaborative workshops. In 2024, I helped spearhead the MathOA Diamond Open Access Stimulus Fund (mathoa.org/diamond-open-access).

Until now, my posts have mostly been about scientific publishing and combinatorics.

The Hidden Networks
That Rule Our World
S2 E50

Join us for a fascinating deep dive into the world of network analysis, where we explore Node2Vec - a groundbreaking algorithm that helps us understand the hidden communities within complex networks. Unlock profound insights about communities hidden within the vast connections surrounding us.

Hey Mastodon! 👋 Here is our #introduction post: We are the Data Visualization Lab at Khoury College of Computer Sciences at Northeastern University. You can find more about our work here: vis.khoury.northeastern.edu/

We'd love to be connected to more folks and labs in the realms of #DataVisualization #HCI #xAI #AR #VR #VisualAnalytics #PhD #Research

Our lab has been applying visualization to domain areas like #accessibility #UAVs #Genetics #Privacy #Pedagogy #Networks #GraphTheory

Say hi!

Are there any good tools for analysing your Mastodon network in a #GraphTheory / #NetworkAnalysis kind of way?

I'd love to:
- visualise the different groups of people that I follow: what are the connections between the people that I follow?
- see which accounts post a lot, or not at all
- see which accounts I interact with the most (are there people that I followed but it turns out I'm not actually interested in what they post now?)
- see what hours I and others post

Lots of new people migrating to Mastodon from Twitter! Given that the crowd is very different here, I thought I'd reintroduce myself by being more open than usual about my recent art.

'⦵ (pour Isidore)' is series of works (including speech synthesis, photography, graph analysis, found artefacts and text) presented across a wav and a pdf. There is no streaming preview.

What kind of #network do we want for #Mastodon (and #Fediverse in general)?

The answer may vary depending on users and communities, but let's discuss where the new follow-recommendation tool of Mastodon 3.5 leads us (github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p).

The evolution of a network where new users preferentially follow existing influencers can be modeled as a Price/BA network.

You end up with few large influencers.
Honestly, I'm not a fan...

Joining a new social network is a disorienting experience. Unlike other platforms, offering the user to find their old friends using something like a contact list upload is impossible. So we need t...
