James B. Wilson graduated with his Ph.D. in Mathematics from the
University of Oregon in 2008 where
he studied
with Bill Kantor
(advisor),
Gene Luks,
and
Charley Wright.
Before this he spent nearly four years with the
Intel
Architecture Labs and still enjoys questions from industry.
As a sophomore he asked an innocent question about group isomorphism to
Professor F. Rudy Beyl,
who kindly
delayed a response and instead gave him a copy of a lovely paper by
Ada Rottlaender
to find the answer
himself. This sparked the author's now decades-long obsession with
isomorphism in algebra and its complexity.
