Dr. Paul Buckingham is an Associate Lecturer in the Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at the University of Alberta. He holds a PhD in Pure Mathematics from the University of Sheffield (2008) and an MMath from the University of Durham (2004). His research focuses on algebraic number theory, particularly exploring topics such as p-adic analysis, elliptic curves, and class field theory.
- Education: PhD in Pure Mathematics (University of Sheffield, 2008); MMath (University of Durham, 2004)
- Previous Positions: Postdoctoral Fellow at PIMS (2011–2013), Max Wyman Assistant Professor at the University of Alberta (2008–2011)
His teaching spans a wide range of courses, including Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and advanced topics like Algebraic Number Theory. He has organized conferences such as Alberta Number Theory Days 2010 and runs the Seminar In Number Theory for Alberta Students (SINTAS). His research interests emphasize applying algebraic tools to understand integers and their properties.
Buckingham’s articles explore themes in number theory and algebra, including p-adic functions, chromatic polynomials, and Galois theory. He has contributed to journals like Acta Arithmetica and Glasgow Mathematical Journal.
He has coordinated research projects (e.g., MATH/STAT 499) and participated in collaborative seminars, such as the Class Field Theory seminar with the University of Calgary. Non-mathematical interests include reading and photography.
