Blake Jackson

I grew up in Hayden, Alabama, and attended college at Jacksonville State University in Jacksonville, Alabama. I completed my Ph.D. in mathematics at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa under the supervision of Kyungyong Lee. I am currently an Assistant Research Professor at the University of Connecticut, where I am mentored by Ralf Schiffler and Kyu-Hwan Lee. 

Here is my CV.

I work in algebraic combinatorics. I have two mathematical focuses: cluster algebras and symmetric functions. I am increasingly interested in using computation and machine learning to address open questions in these areas, particularly questions involving mutation-invariant and hereditary properties of quivers and cluster algebras, bijections on Dyck paths, and properties of Young tableaux.
