Dugald Macpherson

Professor Dugald Macpherson is a Professor in the School of Mathematics at the University of Leeds. His research focuses on model theory, group theory, combinatorics, and related areas, with particular interests in stability theory, valued fields, permutation groups, and homogeneous structures. He is affiliated with the Pure Mathematics and Logic research groups within the university.

Education background includes a D.Phil. from Oxford University obtained in 1983.

His research interests span model theory, including the study of valued fields from the perspective of generalized stability theory, generalizations of o-minimality, and the model theory of finite and pseudofinite structures. He also explores group theory, infinite permutation groups, and homogeneous structures. His work connects to combinatorics, Ramsey theory, topological dynamics, and constraint satisfaction problems.
