Sergey
Sarkisov
Houston, Texas Area
Having attained my Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Houston, I now teach math at the collegiate level. I have over 19 years of experience training young minds to think and to enjoy the learning process. Having recited and taught mathematics as a graduate student for 6+ years, I have found that teaching is my most highlighted attribute. Alongside higher education, I have 2+ years of managing, teaching, and evaluating younger students in preparation for the National Olympiads. Overall, my strongest teaching topics are: Calculus I/II, Geometry, Trigonometry, Algebra, Probability, Statistics, Number Theory, Linear Algebra, ODE’s, and Complex Analysis.
In the research spectrum, my areas of expertise are statistics, probability, stochastic processes, genetic evolution, mutations, modeling, mathematical biology, data analysis, simulation, time series, estimation theory, optimization, data science, and algorithm development. I have been working on my doctoral studies and afterwards with Profs. Robert Azencott, Tim Cooper, Ilya Timofeyev, Ricardo Azevedo, et al. (See below the publication of 2018 (in progress) for brief research description.)

Fitness Estimation in Models of Genetic Evolution of Asexual Populations
Theoretical Population Biology
This contains an overview of the results attained while working on my dissertation regarding parameter estimation for bacterial populations and the statistical analysis of the algorithm discovered and used. I can now give accurate predictions on how many types of mutants there are, how strong these mutants are, and how likely they are to occur on a particular day. This work can be extended from bacterial populations to more complex life or other probabilistic/stochastic models such as quantitative trends, etc.
