The homepage I never get to update.

My research interests are mostly in the triangle formed by algebra, discrete mathematics, and number theory. Mathematical pet objects are commutative rings, polynomial mappings and integer-valued polynomials.

Some of my papers in PDF (that would be the link with the paper's title), PostScript and dvi, as well as abstracts in HTML.

A construction of integer-valued polynomials with prescribed sets of lengths of factorizations - preprint (PDF), (dvi) (ps)

Integer-valued polynomials on algebras - preprint (PDF), (dvi) (ps)

I guess I do not have to point out that the wish list by "Sophie Frisch" on amazon.de was compiled by someone completely unrelated?
