Gerald V. Dunne

Gerald V. Dunne is a Professor of Physics at the University of Connecticut. His research focuses on theoretical particle physics, quantum field theory, and mathematical physics. He is a member of the UConn Particle-Astro-Nuclear (PAN) Group and has held visiting positions at institutions such as the Technion (Israel), Balliol College Oxford, and the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg.

• PhD: Imperial College London (1988)
• MSc & BSc: University of Adelaide (1985–1984)

His research interests include quantum field theory applications to sub-nuclear particles, ultra-intense lasers, and resurgence analysis in mathematical physics. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Physics and has received awards such as the Chancellor’s Research Excellence Award and the DFG Mercator Professorship.

Recent contributions include studies on resurgence in quantum systems, non-perturbative phenomena, and trans-series extrapolation techniques. Dunne has organized major international workshops and edited volumes, including the Peter Suranyi 87th Birthday Festschrift.

Lab/Team: Part of the PAN Group at UConn, collaborating with researchers globally on topics like resurgent asymptotics and QCD critical phenomena.
