Ask HN: Where to find a good mathematician to work as a consultant?

4 points by Envec83 11y ago ↗ HN

I am currently working on a project/algorithm which is quite challenging, and I am considering to hire a good mathematician as a consultant, to double check the progress I am making and possibly to help to refine the algorithm.

Do you guys have any suggestions regarding where I can find one? You can reach me here: daniel AT kubic.com.br

Perhaps ColinWright[1], a prolific HN user who is a mathematician, may have some referrals for you.

In what area of Mathematics? Or are you looking for a Theoretical Computer Scientist?

Theoretical Computer Scientist could help. The area is combinatorics.
