Flammie's Erdős Number

Erdős number is the collaboration chain distance to mathematician Paul Erdős. Since we are not mathematicians, many calculators won't give clear answer, but sometimes there is an overlap via formal language theory for example. Here are some paths I have found for number 6:

  1. Paul Erdős

  2. Norbert W. Sauer

  3. Manfred Droste

  4. Heiko Vogler

  5. Mark-Jan Nederhof

  6. Anssi Yli-Jyrä

  7. Me

  8. Paul Erdős

  9. Krishnaswami Alladi

  10. Anthony G. Shannon

  11. Stoyan Mihov

  12. Jan Daciuk

  13. Mikel L. Forcada

  14. Me

A bit of creativity will also give:

  1. Paul Erdős
  2. Marcel Erné
  3. Branimir Šešelja
  4. Andreas Maletti
  5. Joakim Nivre
  6. Me

or probably even better but large collaborations on resource papers might be a bit of a cheating?
