Some sources of information and advice for PG students
Most of the URLs I had here are now dead, but still current are:
Other advice is available from
Justin Zobel's web page,
including details about his books about writing theses in computer science.
Genealogy
Lastly, if you're one of my students and you want to know how you're
mathematically connected to Gauss (amongst others) look at
The
Mathematics Genealogy Project.
There's also a missing line which goes:
Walters, Hanna Neumann, Olga Taussky-Todd, Furtwangler,
Klein, Lipschitz, Dirichlet, Poisson, Fourier, Lagrange, Euler
and the Bernoulli's, as well as providing yet another line to Gauss.
