Phd Mathematical Physics in Edinburgh United Kingdom | The University of Edinburgh

Our team brings together researchers from diverse fields, maintaining strong ties with the School's Algebra and Geometry & Topology groups.

You'll gain advantages from joining not just one of the UK's most extensive mathematics research teams, but also the Edinburgh Mathematical Physics Group - a collaborative research initiative established in 1999 with Heriot-Watt University, now incorporated into the Maxwell Institute.

The Mathematics School thrives as an active community comprising over 60 faculty members and researchers guiding 60 graduate students.

We explore broad-ranging topics across multiple disciplines. A primary focus involves deciphering quantum gravity's fundamental principles by examining black holes, cosmological models, spacetime singularities, while employing holographic methods and investigating connections with quantum gauge field theory through the gauge/gravity duality.
