Research in the School of Mathematics and Statistics

Research Groups

Applied Mathematics

Applies analytical and computational techniques to the modelling of phenomena in the real world.


Pure Mathematics

This research group is composed of four subgroups, as follows.

Algebra

Focuses on the structural themes that underpin and interrelate the different branches and applications of mathematics.

Analysis

Covers a broad area of analytic mathematics, including analytic number theory and probability.

Computational Algebra

Designs powerful algorithms capable of answering a great variety of questions in mathematics.

Geometry and Topology

Studies the global structure of the sets of solutions of systems of equations, considered as higher dimensional analogues of curves and surfaces in space.


Nonlinear Analysis

Studies nonlinear equations (including ordinary and partial differential equations), and their applications.


Statistics

Used in all areas of the sciences and social sciences, and underlies the making of scientific inferences under uncertainty.


SUTMEG

Sydney University Tertiary Mathematics Education Group (SUTMEG) focuses on activities and discussions relating to teaching mathematics at a tertiary level.
