Hello and welcome to my homepage!

My name is Sandra Reuben Kingan and I am an Associate Professor of Mathematics at the City University of New York. 

I discover new mathematics and I help people understand and enjoy math!

I have a joint appointment in the Mathematics Ph.D program at the Graduate Center and in the Mathematics Department at Brooklyn College.

My areas of research are combinatorics and geometry – matroid theory, graph theory, and combinatorial algorithms with applications to network science. 

My areas of interest are broader and include linear and abstract algebra, probability, statistics, history of mathematics, climate science, sociology, art, and the scholarship of teaching and learning. 

I did my Ph.d. at Louisiana State University and my dissertation advisor was James Oxley.

My book "Graphs and Networks" blending graph theory and network science has been published by Wiley.  See the Table of Contents. The first chapter is a survey of graph theory and network science and sets the stage for the remaining chapters. The book has a blog accompanying it, where I will be posting all the material that did not make it into the book, as time permits. 

I am a co-founder of the New York Combinatorics Group. We welcome all combinatorists in the tri-state area. Send me an email and I'll include you in our wonderfully diverse and growing group. We run the New York Combinatorics Seminar among other things. The seminar has a YouTube channel consisting of prior talks.
