I am a lecturer in pure mathematics and the Head of the Geometry Group at the University of St Andrews. My research is supported by the EPSRC New Investigator Award.
My research is in algebraic and tropical geometry. See my research page and my CV (updated 2024) for more detail.
I supervise a postdoc, Thibault Poiret and a PhD student, Violeta Lopez.
My email address is yoav.len@st-andrews.ac.uk.
I am an editor for the Proceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, Section A (Mathematics). Please follow the instructions here to submit an article.
I believe in the axioms laid out by Federico Ardila:
Axiom 1. Mathematical potential is distributed equally among different groups, irrespective of geographic, demographic, and economic boundaries.
Axiom 2. Everyone can have joyful, meaningful, and empowering mathematical experiences.
Axiom 3. Mathematics is a powerful, malleable tool that can be shaped and used differently by various communities to serve their needs.
Axiom 4. Every student deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
