In 2022-24 I have written ten "Fun with Numbers" brief articles for the Gazette of the Australian Mathematical Society. These are small articles on simple number theoretic topics.
My main mathematics of 2022-2024 to date was the book monograph entitled Partitions, Visible Point Vectors, and Ramanujan Functions. It has a Foreword by Professor Dr Henk Koppelaar (Delft University of Technology). The book covers classical Integer Partitions, Rogers-Ramanujan Partitions in Statistical Mechanics Solved Models, and includes Vector Partitions ideas and the Visible Point Vector identities I found some years ago. It has chapters on Plane Partitions, Asymptotic Partition Formulas, Partition Congruences, Ramanujan Continued Fractions, Polylogarithms, Parametric Euler sum identities, Higher Dimensional Weighted Partition Identities now called the Visible Point Vector identities. The final draft is submitted and in editorial flux until planned publication in 2024.
The book is over 540 pages with final high level table of contents:

Other projects:
Dirichlet series analogues of q-series, where arithmetical function identities encode quasicrystals. I give new analogue summations for classical q-series and hypergeometric series summations in terms of Riemann Zeta functions and Jordan Totient functions. This is a further monograph for me to complete.
So I have research interests in the Theory of Higher Dimensional Partitions, Aperiodic Order, Dynamical Systems, Combinatorics, Discrete Geometry, Number Theory, Quasicrystal tilings and their Dirichlet series functions, and Mathematical Physics, and areas where these theories may overlap.

POEMS:
In 2010 I published Words in Common, which is a collection over decades of journal/magazine/anthology published poems partly funded by the Australia Council for the Arts many years ago. The book was officially launched by Professor Kevin Brophy from University of Melbourne, Creative Writing Department. It was edited by Associate Professor Trevor Code from Deakin University.
