The articles in this volume grew out of a 2019 workshop, held at
Johns Hopkins University, that was inspired by a belief that when
mathematicians take time to reflect on the social forces involved
in the production of mathematics, actionable insights result.
Topics range from mechanisms that lead to an inclusion-exclusion
dichotomy within mathematics to common pitfalls and better
alternatives to how mathematicians approach teaching, mentoring and
communicating mathematical ideas. This collection will be of
interest to students, faculty and administrators wishing to gain a
snapshot of the current state of professional norms within
mathematics and possible steps toward improvements.
This volume provides accessible and self-contained research
problems designed for undergraduate student projects, and
simultaneously promotes the development of sustainable
undergraduate research programs. The chapters in this work span a
variety of topical areas of pure and applied mathematics and
mathematics education. Each chapter gives a self-contained
introduction on a research topic with an emphasis on the specific
tools and knowledge needed to create and maintain fruitful research
programs for undergraduates. Some of the topics discussed include:*
Disease modeling* Tropical curves and surfaces* Numerical
semigroups* Mathematics EducationThis volume will primarily appeal
to undergraduate students interested in pursuing research projects
and faculty members seeking to mentor them. It may also aid
students and faculty participating in independent studies and
capstone projects.

Testimonios brings together first-person narratives from the
vibrant, diverse, and complex Latinx and Hispanic mathematical
community. Starting with childhood and family, the authors recount
their own individual stories, highlighting their upbringing,
education, and career paths. Their particular stories, told in
their own voices, from their own perspectives, give visibility to
some of the experiences of Latinx/Hispanic mathematicians.
Testimonios seeks to inspire the next generation of Latinx and
Hispanic Mathematicians by featuring the stories of people like
them, holding a mirror up to our own community. It also aims to
provide a window for mathematicians (and aspiring mathematicians)
from all ethnicities, with the hope of inspiring a better
understanding of the diversity of the mathematical community.
