Our Pure Mathematics program focuses on two core disciplines: functional analysis and geometric algebra. In Applied Mathematics, we primarily investigate fluid mechanics, astrophysics, and cosmology.
We welcome MPhil and PhD applications across all our research domains.
As a postgraduate researcher in our School of Mathematics, Statistics and Physics, you'll receive guidance from a specialist in your selected area.
Pure Mathematics encompasses various specialized groups. In analysis, one team explores operator theory and function theory, while another examines Banach algebras, cohomology, and modules. Algebra research includes subgroups focusing on infinite groups, as well as finite classical groups and their geometric properties.
Our Applied Mathematics faculty pursue studies in: astrophysical and geophysical fluid dynamics
quantum matter, mathematical biology and archaeology, cosmology and quantum gravity
Sample project lists for both Pure and Applied Mathematics are accessible.
We conduct research seminars covering algebra and geometries, analysis, and applied mathematics. Postgraduate students may also present at these seminars.
Specialized courses are available via the MAGIC distance learning initiative, partially supported by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).
Our affiliations include:
the North British Functional Analysis Seminar, the North British Geometric Group Theory Seminar
Algebra and Representation Theory in the North, supported by the London Mathematical Society and the Edinburgh Mathematical Society
the Joint Quantum Centre in collaboration with Durham University
