Martin Taylor

Martin Taylor is a Royal Society Tata University Research Fellow and Senior Lecturer in the Department of Mathematics at Imperial College London. He is affiliated with the Pure Analysis and PDE group and the Geometry group within the Faculty of Natural Sciences. His research focuses on partial differential equations, general relativity, and kinetic theory. He has held postdoctoral positions at Princeton University (2018–2019) and Imperial College London (2016–2018), and completed his PhD in 2015 under Mihalis Dafermos at the University of Cambridge.

Education: Martin Taylor earned his PhD in November 2015 from the University of Cambridge's Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics, supervised by Professor Mihalis Dafermos. His postdoctoral training includes roles at:

• Princeton University (Department of Mathematics and Gravity Initiative, 2018–2019)
• Imperial College London (Department of Mathematics, 2016–2018)

Research Interests: Taylor’s work centers on partial differential equations (PDEs), general relativity, and kinetic theory. He investigates stability properties of spacetime solutions, particularly focusing on black holes and cosmological models. His research integrates techniques from pure analysis, geometric PDEs, and mathematical physics to address fundamental questions in relativity.

Publications: Taylor’s recent work emphasizes the stability of spacetime structures in relativity, including studies of Kerr black holes and Minkowski space. Earlier contributions include geometric analysis on sphere packing and collaborative efforts with leading researchers in the field.

Advising & Grants: No formal advisees or grants are listed in the provided information. He has organized significant academic events such as the Münster--Imperial Day in PDE (2024) and workshops on Nonlinear Waves and Fluids (2024). His teaching includes Riemannian geometry courses at Imperial College London, alongside co-organizing seminars like the London PDE Seminar and London Analysis & Probability Seminar.

Labs/Teams: Taylor is actively involved in Imperial’s Pure Analysis and PDE group and Geometry group, contributing to both research and academic leadership through event organization and collaborative initiatives.
