This is the web-page for Jackie Daykin,
still ... under construction (watch this space!)
I am a Visiting Research Fellow & Visiting Lecturer at King's and Royal Holloway Colleges, University of London.
I am also a DEBII National and International Link Member, and a member of the Centre for Stringology
and Applications at Curtin University Perth, Western Australia. I have recently
become an Associate of TIBS, Laboratoire D'Informatique, Traitement De L'Information et des
Systemes, Universite de Rouen, France. But first and foremost I am a mother of two special boys ... rapidly becoming men ...

Erdos number
From time to time it is a surprise when someone approaches me to say with interest that my Erdos number is 2! This is indeed the case, but let me explain that this elated number is simply due to publishing with my father, David Daykin, who published jointly with Paul Erdos. Think of me as a chipette off the old block!
