my name is sw3aterCS, age ≥ 21. pronouns are she/her. i am a graduate mathematics student somewhere in the united states who has been doing research for about a few years now. within mathematics, my interests are varied: i am fond of metric spaces, approximation, and interactions between group theory and topology, although i have also enjoyed courses in algebraic combinatorics and measure theory. probably, my professional work will be in some applied area involving topology and/or approximation. outside of mathematics, my academic interests include linguistics (especially sociolinguistics) and philosophy (although i hardly get the chance to read any nowadays). i also dabble in a bit of programming from time to time.
i'm a big minecrafter. specifically, i'm a fan of the CTM (complete the monument) genre of maps, in which you slay a bunch of monsters and grab a bunch of wools to put on a fancy monument structure. i've worked on a few CTM maps with several other people over the years, and one day i hope to put out a major solo project. you can find some relevant links here:
my current fandoms are puyo puyo, ace attorney, undertale/deltarune, celeste, and oneshot. i'm a big fan of the suzuran quartet (ringo, maguro, risukuma, ecolo) and niko oneshot in particular. i've actually cosplayed as ringo ando several times before! hopefully, i can get some pictures on here one day. if you've got any cool art or fics of these characters, i'd love to see them! i am also sometimes involved with danganronpa and its associates (it's where i used to do roleplay online). lastly, i am a homestuck because it is impossible to escape this godforsaken fandom.
i am also a decent fan of rhythm games. i used to be a player of osu! until my account was wrongfully terminated sometime around end-of-year 2025. (the support team seems to think my account was somebody else's alt account, but in fact it's the one, sole, original account i've used since ~2024. they have not responded to my requests to have me be reinstated.) i'm hoping to play unbeatable and vivid stasis sometime soon.
in the physical world, i play the piano in my spare time, mostly just for fun. i'm also a big fan of board games. some of my favorite board games include:
if you want to contact me, i have a discord account: it's @sw3atercs. feel free to send a DM, although i can't guarantee i'll respond in any sort of timely manner. but tell me you're coming from my website first, or else i'll just think you're some rando! you might also like to see my bandcamp profile. i also also have my own youtube channel! there is no upload schedule.
oh also also! i have a 3ds friend code! i saw someone post theirs online and i thought it was pretty cool, so i'm gonna do it as well. here it is: 0903-3021-7042. sometimes i wish nintendo would make a STREETPASS MOBILE APP to continue the legacy of the streepass plaza on the 3DS, but i've been told by some individuals that this would be technologically infeasible. (bluetooth being hella expensive to run for extended periods of time, being one reason for the difficulty.) at least we have netpass!
if your nintendo console of choice is the switch rather than the 3ds (or if you just want to know this info), my switch friend code is SW-3659-4099-7682.
oh and lastly if you wanna send me something via RSA encryption (it'd be funny), here's the relevant info: n = 37541769202336032815593672817459311787860539562140547. e = 123491. if you don't know what an RSA cryptosystem is, now's a good chance to learn about some modern mathematics outside of the arithmetic-to-algebra-to-calculus schooling track! a good search term to start with is 'modular arithmetic'.
