Professor Sills joined the Georgia Southern faculty in 2007. His research interests include combinatorial number theory, especially integer partitions, and related topics including all areas of mathematics influenced by Srinivasa Ramanujan. He is the author of the book “”An Invitation to the Rogers–Ramanujan Identities”” published by CRC Press in 2017. More recently, he has expanded his research program to include mathematical statistics. He enjoys classroom teaching and individual mentorship of students in mathematics and statistics. Several of his student advisees have gone on to earn the Ph.D. degree.
