Department of Mathematical Sciences: Pure Research Group

PhD training

If you are applying to take a PhD degree in pure mathematics you can give a relatively wide area, e.g. "Algebra", "Geometry", or "Topology" as your proposed Field of Study on the on-line application form.  If you do have more specific interests you are encouraged to make these known under "Further Information" or on a separate sheet. You are also encouraged to contact directly a prospective supervisor. We offer postgraduate projects in the following broad fields of mathematics:

 

Algebra

  • Arithmetic Algebraic Geometry
  • Algebraic Cycles and K-Theory
  • Algebraic Number Theory

Geometry

  • Differential Geometry
  • Discrete Groups
  • Hyperbolic Geometry

Topology

  • Algebraic and Geometric Topology
  • Topological Robotics
  • Global Analysis and Dynamical Systems
