Dani (Danielle) Carson is an American mathematician.[1] She is best known for her research in graph theory and partial differential equations.[2]
Early life[edit]
Dani Carson was born February 7, 2002, in Orlando, Florida.[3] She dropped out of middle school in 6th grade, and started auditing classes at Stetson University when she was 13-years-old.[4][5] She became a full-time student at 14, and is majoring in math with a minor in computer science.[6]
Personal life[edit]
Dani has a 15-year-old brother named Josh.[7] She grew up on a 15-acre farm in Eustis, Florida. Along with math, Carson loves music. She has been trained in classical piano for over thirteen years and classical guitar for six years.[5]
Dani has severe protanopia (colorblindness), which means the only colors she sees are blue, brown, black, white, and grey. However, she has a neurological condition called synesthesia.[4] Synesthesia makes her see all numbers and letters in color, and see colors with sounds. To Dani, numbers also have a unique personality. For example, the number 6 is dark blue, talkative, and friendly.[8] Dani believes that having synesthesia is what got her interested in math.[3]
Career[edit]
Carson worked on a group project in 2017 with a few other students at Stetson University. The project was titled “Towards Detecting “Fake News” by Propagating Bias through a Network of Linked Assertions.”[9] Dani worked on creating a network of linked assertions which she wrote about on Stetson’s math and computer science department’s website. The project was accepted as a 2018 Grace Hopper Computer Conference poster presentation.[10] The project won 2nd place in the ACM undergraduate research competition in 2018.[11]
Dani’s current research is about building a new encryption method for point clouds using interval stepped chaotic mapping. It looks at Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) as a basis, while creating an algorithm to map ECC to point masses in a three-dimensional space. Which then adds a time element to the encryption method, so the data is periodically mapped through a series of matrix transformation which not only changes the cypher text, but the private key itself.[9]
