    The REU 2010 paper is being edited.

  • The REU 2009 paper has been submitted for publication. Here is a recent version of that paper.

  • Graphs that are intrinsically linked with an unused vertex , with former REU '01 students Garry Bowlin, Barbara Chervenka, and April Quinn.

    REU 2008 paper. (Submitted for publication)

    REU 2005 paper. (There are still other written results from 2005 year that require more editing).
