Alex Burgin

Welcome!

My name is Alex Burgin. I am a PhD student in the School of Math at Georgia Tech, where I am grateful to be mentored by Michael Lacey.

I completed my undergraduate degree with departmental honors at Duke University, where I had the privilege of doing research under Lillian Pierce and Heekyoung Hahn.

My current research interests lie in the intersection of harmonic analysis and analytic number theory. This also involves interactions with arithmetic combinatorics and ergodic theory.

I have an Erdős number of 3, and value the collaborative aspect of mathematics research.

As of the 2025-2026 academic year, I am the Graduate Student Representative for the SoM at Gatech.

With my brothers.

"Rulers have come and gone, countries have come and gone, empires have come and gone. But through it all and surviving the wars and the plagues and the famines is the thread of mathematics. It is one of the few constants of human life."

- Andrew Wiles
