Biography

Hunter Spink earned his PhD from Harvard University in 2020. Before coming to the University of Toronto, he was a Szegő assistant professor at Stanford University from 2020-2023.

Hunter’s research is at the interface of combinatorics and geometry, particularly in the areas of combinatorial Hodge theory, additive combinatorics, convex geometry, and o-minimality.

His recent notable publications include “Tautological classes of Matroids” (with Andrew Berget, Chris Eur, Dennis Tseng) published in Inventiones Mathematicae and “Log-concavity of matroid h-vectors and mixed Eulerian numbers” (with Andrew Berget, Dennis Tseng) published in Duke mathematics journal.
