2002-2003 ANNUAL REPORT
ERIN TERWILLEGER
1. Introduction
I was a VIGRE Postdoctoral Associate at Georgia Tech for the 2002-2003 school
year. I received my PhD from the University of Missouri-Columbia in May 2002
under the direction of Professor Loukas Grafakos. My research interests are Harmonic
Analysis with emphasis on Fourier Analysis and Singular Integeral Operators. While
at Georgia Tech, Professor Michael Lacey was my mentor. In the fall of 2003, I will be
starting a tenure-track assistant professor position at the University of Connecticut
in Storrs.
2. Research
I have completed and/or worked on the following papers over the academic year
2002-2003.
* Lp bounds for a maximal dyadic sum operator, with L. Grafakos and T. Tao,
Math. Zeit., to appear, (2003).
* Remarks on product VMO, with M. Lacey, in preparation, (2003).
* Third order commutators and product BMO, in preparation, (2003).
Through the VIGRE travel grant, I was able to attend the following conferences
while at Georgia Tech.
* Second Annual Prairie Analysis Conference, University of Kansas, Lawrence
KS.
* Quasiconvexity and its Applicationa, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ.
* Riviere-Fabes Symposium, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN.
* Park City Mathematics Institute/Institute for Advanced Study summer pro-
ram in Harmonic Analysis and PDE's.
I also regularly attended the Analysis Seminar at Georgia Tech where I gave the
talk
* Lp bounds for a maximal dyadic sum operator, joint work with L. Grafakos
and T. Tao, February 2003.
I also regularly attended an informal time-frequency seminar organized by Professor
Chris Heil. There I presented a series of two talks over the following paper.
* S. Ferguson and M. Lacey, Second order commutators and product BMO,
This informal seminar gave me the chance to interact with some graduate students,
other postdocs, and even a professor at a nearby university.
3. Teaching
I taught two courses at Georgia Tech: Math 2401 (Calculus III), Section B1 in
Fall 2002, and Math 2602 (Linear and Discrete Mathematics), Sections B1 and B2
in Spring 2003. These courses gave me a good oppurtunity to interact with stu-
dents. One of my students from 2602 asked me to write letters of recommendation
to graduate schools on his behalf.
