My Favorite Math Books, Papers, and Videos
Here is a collection of some of my favorite math things. This is far from a complete listing (especially since I've only started recording these recently), and by no means is it meant to include all of the greatest mathematical results of all time.
Books
- Spectral and Algebraic Graph Theory by Spielman (currently a draft, though still excellent).
- Combinatorial Problems and Exercises by Lovasz.
- The Probabilistic Method by Alon and Spencer.
- Asymptopia by Florescu and Spencer
- Algebraic Combinatorics by Stanley.
- Enumerative Combinatorics I by Stanley.
- The Cauchy-Schwarz Master Class by Steele.
- Euler: Master of Us All by Dunham.
Papers and Surveys
Videos
An emphasis for these video series are those whose material is introductory (e.g. coming from either a class or workshop). If you are aware of any other such series, feel free to let me know!

Conferences/Workshops
- PCMI Session
on Probabilistic and Extremal Combinatorics. I especially liked the courses "Intersecting Families" and "Sublinear Expander Graphs."
- Pseudorandomness Bootcamp. I especially liked the miniseries "Pseudorandomness and Regularity in Graphs" and "Arithmetic Applications of Pseudorandmoness."
- Additive Combinatorics Workshop.
- Various topics in and around combinatorics. I particularly enjoyed Alexandru Nica's talks on free probability and Wojiech Samotij's talks on hypergraph containers.
Finally, here are some one time talks that I thoroughly enjoyed.
