Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Combinatorics
  • Discrete mathematics
  • Algebra

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Combinatorics, Discrete mathematics, Random graph, Random regular graph and Vertex. His Combinatorics study incorporates themes from Simple, Upper and lower bounds and Exponential function. Discrete mathematics is often connected to Partition in his work.

His work carried out in the field of Random regular graph brings together such families of science as Quartic graph, Path graph, Graph center, Wheel graph and Complement graph. His Discrepancy theory research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mathematical proof, Mathematical economics, Mathematical optimization, Family of sets and Randomness. In his research on the topic of Randomness, Probabilistic method is strongly related with Lovász local lemma.

His most cited work include:

  • The Probabilistic Method (4726 citations)
  • The degree sequence of a scale-free random graph process (707 citations)
  • Probabilistic Methods in Combinatorics (492 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Combinatorics, Discrete mathematics, Random graph, Graph and Random walk. His Combinatorics study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Expected value. Joel Spencer combines Expected value and Router in his research.

Joel Spencer performs multidisciplinary study in Router and Vertex in his work. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Almost surely and Upper and lower bounds. His Random graph study frequently links to other fields, such as Probabilistic method.
