معرفی
Mark Pollicott is a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Warwick, where he has held positions since 1992 and 2005. He previously served at Edinburgh, Porto, and Manchester Universities, including a Fielden Chair. His research focuses on Thermodynamic Formalism, Ergodic Theory, and Dynamical Systems, with applications to geometry, number theory, and fractal analysis.
Pollicott earned his BSc (1981) and PhD (1984) in Mathematics and Physics from Warwick, under the supervision of William Parry. He has held prestigious fellowships, including Royal Society and ERC grants, and organized major programs at the Newton Institute, CIB-Lausanne, and ICERM. He serves on editorial boards for journals like Nonlinearity and Journal of Fractal Geometry.
His research explores topics such as fractal dimensions, geodesic flows, and validated numerics. Notable contributions include studies on the Hausdorff dimension of Cantor sets and Bernoulli convolutions. He has supervised 19 PhD students and mentored 18 postdoctoral researchers.
Recent grants include EPSRC funding for computational ergodic theory and dynamical zeta functions. His work bridges pure mathematics with applications in geometry, analysis, and number theory.
