mikematics

Hello and welcome to my private math pages. My name is Mike Winkler aka mikematics. On this website I present some of my ideas, conjectures and proofs on selected topics of mathematics from my private research, which I do completely non-commercially exclusively in my free time. My work is mostly in the areas of number theory, combinatorics and discrete geometry, including graph theory. When a problem has grabbed me, I work on it for many years. My favorite topics are the 3x + 1 problem, regular matchstick graphs, nonperiodic tilings and Heesch’s problem. Besides math, I love horses and cycling, play the piano and guitar, swim a little, and paint occasionally.

Have fun reading and exploring this website.
