Jeremy Booher


I have moved to the University of Florida. My new website is here.

I am a postdoc in the School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Canterbury. Here is my CV.

I am working with Felipe Voloch. Previously, I was a postdoc at the University of Arizona, working with Bryden Cais. Before that, I was a graduate student at Stanford University, where my advisor was Brian Conrad.

I am interested in algebraic number theory and arithmetic geometry, especially Galois representations and curves in characteristic p.

My email is jeremy.booher [AT] canterbury.ac.nz

I am in Room 620 of the Jack Erskine building.

    Expository Notes and Articles

    Expository writing including my senior thesis, Part III essay, and notes for many of the talks I have given at PROMYS, in graduate school, and beyond.

    Warning: the ones which came from the summers I spent as a counselor at PROMYS use non-standard notation: taking a quotient of a ring by a principal ideal is denoted by a subscript. In particular, Zp is the integers modulo p, not the p-adic integers. Furthermore, the group of units in Zp is denoted by Up.
