My Erdös Number is 3
If you are one of the lucky mathematicians (there are 509 of
them) who have written a joint paper with Paul Erdös, then
your Erdös number is 1. If you have written a joint paper
with a person whose Erdös number is 1, then your Erdös
number will be 2. And so on.
My Erdös number is 3, because I have written several joint papers
(see my papers
here)
with Ömer Eğecioğlu whose Erdös number is 2,
because Ömer Eğecioğlu has written a joint
paper with Charles Ryavec
whose Erdös number is 1. Charles Ryavec has written a joint
paper with Paul Erdös.
The Erdös Number Project studies research collaboration among
mathematicians. To find out more about it and possibly discover your
own Erdös Number, please go to
