Dr. Maud De Visscher is a Lecturer in the Department of Mathematics at City, University of London, part of City and St George's, University of London. She has been a faculty member since 2005 and holds a DPhil in Mathematics from the University of Oxford. Her research is centered on algebra, particularly the representation theory of algebraic groups and diagram algebras such as Brauer, partition, and Temperley–Lieb algebras.

Dr. De Visscher’s research focuses on algebraic structures and their representations. She has made significant contributions to the understanding of the representation theory of diagram algebras, including the Brauer and partition algebras, and their connections to symmetric groups and Kazhdan–Lusztig theory. Her recent work introduces oriented Temperley–Lieb algebras to study combinatorial aspects of Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomials for Hermitian symmetric spaces, providing closed combinatorial formulae and advancing categorical representation theory.
The analysis of her 15 most recent publications reveals a strong and consistent research trajectory in algebraic combinatorics and representation theory. Her work frequently involves diagram algebras, symmetric groups, and the combinatorics of Kronecker and Kazhdan–Lusztig coefficients. She often collaborates with leading mathematicians such as Chris Bowman, Alison Cox, and Paul Martin. Her research has evolved from foundational studies on blocks and decomposition numbers in characteristic zero and positive characteristic to more sophisticated categorical and diagrammatic approaches, culminating in innovative work on oriented algebras and combinatorial interpretations of deep representation-theoretic invariants.

Dr. De Visscher has supervised PhD students, including Oliver King, whose thesis focused on the modular representation theory of diagram algebras. While specific grant details are not provided in the text, her prestigious 1851 Research Fellowship indicates significant recognition and funding for her independent research. She has not mentioned leading a formal lab or research team, but her collaborative publication record suggests active participation in a broader research network in algebra and representation theory.
