Daniel Berwick-Evans

Daniel Berwick-Evans is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), part of the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences. He holds a PhD from UC Berkeley (2013) and previously served as a Szego Assistant Professor at Stanford University (2013–2015). His research bridges supersymmetric quantum field theories with differential geometry and algebraic topology.

Education:

• PhD in Mathematics, UC Berkeley, 2013

Research Interests: Explores geometric and topological structures in supersymmetric field theories, including topics like elliptic cohomology, string structures, and localization techniques. His work integrates advanced tools from category theory, homotopy theory, and computational geometry.

Recent Research Trends: Publications span theoretical frameworks (e.g., infinity-sheaves, modularity) and applied methods (e.g., discrete exterior calculus). Themes include higher categorical structures and their applications to physics.
