Research Interests

Prof. Alan Carey
Geometric Analysis and Noncommutative Geometry:
Invariants of manifolds constructed using von Neumann algebras and applications of these methods to quantum field theory.
Dr Colin Guillarmou
Scattering and Spectral Theory in Geometric Settings:
Resonances, hyperbolic geometry, links with conformal geometry.
Dr Mark Harmer
Spectral and Scattering Theory:
Scattering theory on graphs, spectral theory of non compact discrete manifolds, spectral theory and algebraic geometry.
Dr Andrew Hassell
Spectral and Scattering Theory:
Analysis of partial differential operators on noncompact or singular spaces, including resolvent kernels and associated operators, asymptotic properties of eigenfunctions and generalized eigenfunctions, and solutions of time-dependent Schroedinger equations and wave equations on such spaces.
Microlocal analysis:
Pseudodifferential and Fourier integral operators, Lagrangian and Legendrian distributions, analysis on manifolds with corners.
Prof. John Hutchinson
Fractal geometry:
My original research interests were set theory and model theory. Subsequently I have worked on fractals, geometric measure theory and in particular generalised notions of curvature, elliptic systems and nonlinear elasticity type problems, and other geometric variational problems. I am particularly interested in applying techniques from analysis, differential equations and geometric measure theory to physical and geometric problems. In recent years this has included finite element approximations to surfaces of prescribed mean curvature, random fractals and phase transition problems. My current primary area of research is in the general area of fractals and fractal geometry.
Dr Alexander Isaev
Several Complex Variables:
Equivalence problems for domains in complex space and complex manifolds, characterization of domains and manifolds by their groups of holomorphic automorphisms, actions of Lie groups on complex manifolds, complex Monge-Ampère equation and the Kähler-Einstein metric, Reinhardt domains, hyperbolic complex manifolds.
Analysis on Cauchy-Riemann Manifolds:
Systems of differential invariants and differential operators on CR-manifolds, equations of prescribed CR-curvature, mappings of CR-manifolds, algebraic structures arising in CR-geometry, e.g. graded Lie algebras of Levi-Tanaka type.
Dr Rick Loy
Banach Algebras, Cohomology Theory:
The interrelation between algebraic and topological properties, automatic continuity for homomorphisms and derivations, analytic space methods; Banach algebra amenability and its variants, implications of cohomological properties of algebras of operators on Banach spaces, and of algebras over locally compact groups, on the structure of the underlying spaces or groups; structure of radical Banach algebras.
Prof. Alan McIntosh

Geometry of Banach spaces, Statistical Learning Theory:
High dimensional phenomena and, in particular, connections between the geometry of Banach spaces and Statistical Learning Theory.
