AARMS is pleased to announce the winners of this year’s AARMS Graduate Scholarships. Congratulations to all three!

Alfie Davies is a PhD student at Memorial University of Newfoundland, co-supervised by Danny Dyer and Rebecca Milley. He primarily studies how to lose games; he focusses on partizan misère theory within the field of Combinatorial Game Theory. His broader research interests include areas of graph theory and the interplay between algebraic structures and combinatorial games.

Thiago Holleben is a PhD student at Dalhousie University under the supervision of Sara Faridi. He began his studies at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, where he completed his undergraduate degree and obtained a master’s degree. His research interests lie at the intersection of algebra, combinatorics, and topology. He focuses on algebraic methods for proving positivity results in combinatorics and on applying combinatorial techniques to problems in commutative algebra.

Tomasz Maciosowski is a Master’s student at Memorial University of Newfoundland supervised by Danny Dyer, Svenja Huntemann, and Rebecca Milley, studying Combinatorial Game Theory, Misère Games, and P-Free Games. Additional interests include formalization of mathematics, dependent type theory, and functional programming
