Martin Wolf

Martin Wolf is an Associate Professor in Mathematics at the School of Mathematics and Physics, University of Surrey, with affiliations to the Quantum Sciences Group. His career spans institutions including the University of Cambridge, Imperial College London, and Leibniz University Hannover, where he earned his PhD in mathematical physics (summa cum laude). He has held prestigious fellowships such as the STFC Postdoctoral Fellowship and Senior Research Fellowships at Wolfson College, Cambridge.

• Research Interests: Quantum field theory, higher gauge theory, twistor geometry, string/M-theory, and fluid dynamics. His work bridges formal mathematics and applied physics, focusing on algebraic structures like L∞-algebras and BV■-algebras to unify gauge theories with gravity and explore integrable systems.
• Grants: Serves as Principal Investigator for STFC Consolidated Grants (e.g., £277k, 2023-2027) and supervises doctoral studentships.
• Key Publications: Developments in color-kinematics duality, double copy constructions, and twistor-based formulations of supersymmetric theories, with applications to 10-dimensional supergravity and 6D superconformal field theories.
• Teaching: Delivers modules in Linear Algebra, Curves and Surfaces, and advanced topics in Relativity and Quantum Mechanics.
• Event Organisation: Co-organised major conferences including the LMS/EPSRC Durham Symposium on Higher Structures in M-Theory and Clay Workshop Geometry and Fluids.
