I am interested in statistical physics, dynamical systems, billiards, spatial networks and musical tunings. Coauthors and topics can be found on the publications page. See also the EPSRC Spatially Embedded Networks project (2015-19).
Recent meeting organisation: Random walks on random networks, in conjunction with BMC 2016 (Bristol, March 2016). Billiards minisymposium at DDE 2018 (Loughborough, September 2018). Short course and symposium on spatially embedded networks: Oxford September 2016, Oxford September 2017, Bristol September 2018, Oxford September 2019 Online October 2020.
Opportunities:
I am very happy to support applications of future research leaders for EPSRC, Leverhulme, Marie Skłodowska-Curie and/or Royal Society postdoctoral fellowships. Note that these are competitive and the University of Bristol supports and sifts these, so that local deadlines are significantly earlier than published on funder websites.
Well motivated students seeking an undergraduate, MSc, or PhD project, please come/email and discuss options.
