Tom Brown

Tom Brown's picture
I am a teacher of mathematics by profession. I hold a PhD in Applied Mathematics at the University of Pretoria but I prefer to be addressed as “Mr Brown.” For me, meaning in life is found in encouraging gifted young people who may have to face similar adversities as I. My main academic task is to consolidate the work of Prof Niko Sauer (UP) and make my own contributions, at this stage I feel my contribution is still minimal. “Past time is finite, future time is infinite.” Edwin Hubble. For the love of God and the fear of Mathematics!

I have 33 stories in 5 collections on the site. My stories have been read 15102 times and 2 of my stories have been cherry picked
