  • Kenneth Falconer

    My research interests centre around the geometry of fractals and multifractals, geometric measure theory and dynamical systems. Specific topics include self-affine sets and measures, random fractals and fractal processes, pdes on fractals and applications of fractals to other areas. Webpage.

  • Mike Todd

    I work in ergodic theory and dynamical systems, applying ideas from probability and thermodynamic formalism to study expansion and recurrence properties of, mostly, smooth low dimensional systems. Topics include Return Time Statistics, Extreme Value Theory, statistical stability, equilibrium states, phase transitions and transience. Webpage.

Emeritus Staff

  • John McCabe

    My research interests have generally been in rational approximation, and pade approximation and the related continued fractions in particular. In collaboration with others, mainly overseas and including my Ph.D students, I have worked on strong moment problems. Webpage.

Postdoctoral Researchers

  • Xiong Jin

    I am interested in studying the Hausdorff dimension of random fractals and random measures that naturally appear in Probability theory, dynamical system, complex analysis and other related fields. Webpage.

Ph.D Students

  • Ábel Farkas

  • Jonathan Fraser

    I am interested in fractal and multifractal geometry. Particular topics include: self-affine sets and measures; random iterated function system constructions; and dimensional properties of generic fractal curves and surfaces. Webpage .

  • James Hyde

    I am primarily an algebraist but am also interested in studying generic properties of fractals using notions such as 'Baire category' and 'prevalence'. Webpage .
