Background

About Connor Oreilly

I am a mathematics student, with teaching experience in the fundamentals of mathematics, theoretical computer science, and scientific computing. Currently, I am studying MSc Mathematical Sciences in the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), specialising in functional analysis and metric number theory. Previously, I graduated with an MPhil in Computer Science from Loughborough University. While there, I worked with the Theoretical Computer Science group to conduct mathematical research with applications in cryptography, specifically on the second-order differential uniformity of cryptographic Boolean functions. I also worked here as a teaching assistant for courses in theoretical computer science and data science. I graduated with a first-class honours in BSc (Hons) Mathematics from University College Dublin. My Bachelor's thesis studied topics in functional analysis and measure theory, with application in partial differential equations for fluid modelling. Specifically, I studied a convergence analysis of particle solutions of the Camassa-Holm equation. I also completed a research internship under the UCD Mathematics Undergraduate Summer Research Programme, and worked as a teaching assistant for introductory courses in calculus and scientific computing with Python.
