Bradley Rodgers

Bradley Rodgers is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Queen's University, affiliated with the Faculty of Arts and Science. He holds a PhD from the University of California, Los Angeles (2013) and a BSc from Purdue University. His research focuses on analytic number theory, random matrix theory, and their interconnections, particularly in understanding the distribution of prime numbers and zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. He has conducted postdoctoral research at the University of Zurich and the University of Michigan before joining Queen's in 2018.

Education:

• PhD in Mathematics, University of California Los Angeles (2013)
• BSc in Mathematics, Purdue University

Research Interests: Rodgers explores the intersection of analytic number theory and random matrix theory, investigating phenomena such as the statistical distribution of primes, autocorrelations of characteristic polynomials, and the application of probabilistic methods to number-theoretic problems. He also studies the role of randomness in discrete mathematical structures.

Recent Work: His recent publications address topics like the VC-dimension of random subsets, large prime factors in sequences, and Gaussian behavior of squarefree integers in short intervals. These contributions highlight his expertise in bridging number theory with probabilistic and algebraic frameworks.

Professional Engagement: Rodgers maintains an active research profile with collaborations and grants focusing on his core areas, though specific grants or teams are not detailed in the provided materials.
