Norm Do

Norm Do is an Associate Professor and ARC Future Fellow in the School of Mathematics at Monash University. His research focuses on algebraic geometry, mathematical physics, and combinatorics, with a particular emphasis on topological recursion, moduli spaces, Hurwitz numbers, and intersection theory. He has led multiple ARC-funded projects exploring topics such as partition functions, Frobenius manifolds, and geometric structures on surfaces.

His research interests span the interplay between geometry, topology, and combinatorics, with recent work addressing enumeration problems on surfaces, hyperbolic geometry, and applications of topological recursion to integrable systems. His projects have been supported by prestigious grants, including ARC Future Fellowships and Discovery Projects.

• Projects include:
  • Partition functions through the lens of topological recursion (2025–2029)
  • Frobenius manifolds from a geometrical and categorical viewpoint (2018–2020)
  • The geometry and combinatorics of moduli spaces (2013–2018)

Norm Do has been recognized with the ARC Future Fellowship (2025–2029), reflecting his contributions to advancing interdisciplinary research at the intersection of pure mathematics and theoretical physics. His work bridges abstract mathematical structures with computational tools, yielding insights into enumerative geometry and topological invariants.

His research outputs span over two decades, with notable contributions to understanding Hurwitz numbers, moduli space volumes, and applications of Grassmannian integrals. He collaborates internationally, contributing to both foundational theory and applied problems in geometric combinatorics.
