My Erdös Number
What is an Erdös Number?
The number of "hops" needed to
connect the author of a paper with the prolific late mathematician Paul
Erdös. An author's Erdös number is 1 if he has co-authored a
paper with Erdös, it is 2 if he has co-authored a paper with someone
who has co-authored a paper with Erdös, etc. To learn more about
Erdös numbers, check out the Erdös Number Project.
My Erdös number is currently 4:

C*-correspondences, Documenta Math. 9 (2004), 79--106.
- R.G. Douglas, P. S. Muhly, and Carl Pearcy, Lifting commuting
operators, Michigan Math. J. 15 (1968) 385--395.

invariant subspaces for the backward shift operator, Ann. Inst.
