Elliptic representation theory: the study of symmetries across geometry, algebra and physics. This project aims to study symmetries which control geometry and physics of four-dimensional manifolds. Representation theory is the area in pure mathematics which studies symmetries coming from geometry, algebra, and physics. The expected outcome is new families of quantum algebra, their character formulas, and a solution to an infinite-dimensional moduli problem.

Representation theory is the area in pure mathematics which studies symmetries coming from geometry, algebra, and physics. The expected outcome is new families of quantum algebra, their character formulas, and a solution to an infinite-dimensional moduli problem. This project will further deepen the mathematical knowledge of symmetries, and show unexpected new connections between different areas of pure mathematics and mathematical physics.Read moreRead less

Integral transforms and moduli theory. This project is in algebraic geometry, a branch of pure
mathematics. An overarching goal is a better understanding of the
algebra underlying the sophisticated geometries that arise in the
classification problems that are pervasive in mathematics and its
applications to physics. This new knowledge will then be applied to
further elucidate the geometry of these spaces.

Fourier-Mukai transform.
The benefit will be to enhance the international stature of Australian

Algebraic groups and Springer theory. This project aims to explore representation theory, which is a study of the basic symmetries that occur in nature. By its nature, representation theory has applications to number theory, physics, national security and internet security, and other sciences. Generalised Springer theory plays an important role in representations of finite groups of Lie type.

This project aims to explore representation theory, which is a study of the basic symmetries that occur in nature. By its nature, representation theory has applications to number theory, physics, national security and internet security, and other sciences. Generalised Springer theory plays an important role in representations of finite groups of Lie type. The project aims to develop an analogous theory in a more general setting that includes symmetric spaces. Moreover, the project aims to address various outstanding problems in algebraic groups. The project also plans to explore the connection between the geometry of certain null-cones and deformations of Galois representations.Read moreRead less
Measure theoretic frameworks for limsup sets. This project aims to develop new powerful measure theoretic techniques in mathematics that will be used in establishing some indispensable results in analytical number theory (Diophantine approximation) and dynamical systems. The plan is to construct new techniques and to use them in situations where existing techniques are not applicable. As a consequence of the proposed frameworks, not only we aim to resolve a few long-standing problems such as the ....Measure theoretic frameworks for limsup sets. This project aims to develop new powerful measure theoretic techniques in mathematics that will be used in establishing some indispensable results in analytical number theory (Diophantine approximation) and dynamical systems. The plan is to construct new techniques and to use them in situations where existing techniques are not applicable. As a consequence of the proposed frameworks, not only we aim to resolve a few long-standing problems such as the Generalised Baker-Schmidt Problem (1970) but also envisage that the proposed frameworks will have far-reaching applications beyond the confines of Diophantine approximation and dynamical systems, for example, geometric measure theory, geometric probability and stochastic geometry etc. Read moreRead less

Coset spaces and Hecke algebra actions. This project will develop fundamental models and their mechanics as tools for studying subtle geometry and hidden symmetry in number systems and systems of equations. These powerful new models will provide an elementary and tractable approach for exploiting patterns that are naturally embedded in complex systems.
