Louis V. Quintas studied mathematics at Columbia
University and The City University of New York. From 1967 to 2003 he
was a Professor of Mathematics at Pace University, New
York, where he received The Kenan Outstanding Teacher Award in 1975 and the Dyson Society of Fellows
Class of 1995 was named in his honor. He continues his connection with Pace
University as Professor of Mathematics Emeritus and Ex Officio member
of the New York Mathematics Department. He has written over a 110 research articles on functional equations, algebraic topology,
combinatorial geometry, theoretical and algorithmic random graph theory, mathematical chemistry, and microvascular research
in refereed journals, a book on Random Graphs with Bounded Degree, over 40 technical reports, and textbooks on linear
programming, statistics, and word processing. His teaching experience has exposed him to almost every topic in the undergraduate
curriculum, with his favorites being discrete mathematics, probability, and statistics. He has been on the organizing committees
of four international conferences, co-chair of three, and co-edited three of their proceedings. Since 1980 he has co-edited
Graph Theory Notes of New York, a refereed journal published by The New York Academy
of Sciences. He is a Fellow of the New York Academy of Sciences and has chaired its mathematics section. He is a regular presenter
of his research at national and international conferences, workshops, and as a visitor to other universities. He has served twice as the chair of the mathematics department at Pace
University and is active in the professional mathematical organizations AMS, MAA,
and ICA. He attributes his love of mathematics to Howard Levi,
Fred Supnick, and Alan J. Hoffman, the latter being his doctoral sponsor at The Graduate Center, CUNY.
