BIO

Sarah Mayes-Tang is an Assistant Professor, Teaching Stream in the Mathematics department at the University of Toronto (St. George Campus), and is currently a UofT Teaching Fellow. Previously, she was a professor at Quest University Canada. She received her PhD at the University of Michigan under the supervision of Karen Smith.

Her math research lies in the field of commutative algebra and works to understand infinite collections of polynomials. More specifically, she is interested in understanding the asymptotic behaviour of graded systems of polynomial ideals, such as the system given by taking powers of a fixed ideal. Currently, she is studying relationships between the graded Betti numbers of different ideals within a single graded system.
