Can "research" include heavy math?

Yes, but preferably not only focused on heavy math.

MIRI-style FAI research is pretty much only heavy math, but if you're interested in taking that track, PM me and I can get you resources.

Regardless, I applaud your motivation and am excited in your endeavor!

I'm more interested in the type of research FHI / CSER does - a little less on the math, more on the philosophy / economics / decision theory aspects.
