معرفی
Rachel Newton is a Reader (Associate Professor) in Number Theory at King’s College London’s Department of Mathematics, part of the Faculty of Natural, Mathematical & Engineering Sciences. She holds a Future Leaders Fellowship from UKRI. Her research focuses on rational points on algebraic varieties, local-global principles, Brauer groups, and arithmetic statistics.
Education: PhD in Mathematics from the University of Cambridge (2012 under Tim Dokchitser), followed by postdoctoral positions at Universiteit Leiden, Max Planck Institute for Mathematics (MPIM Bonn), and IHÉS. Previously, she held roles at the University of Reading.
Research interests include:
- Brauer-Manin obstructions and transcendental Brauer groups
- Genus numbers of abelian fields
- Prescribed norms in number fields
- Applications of machine learning to modular multiplication
Grants: Active projects include a UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship (2021-2025) and EPSRC funding (2021-2022). Her work bridges arithmetic statistics with cohomological methods.
Labs/Teams: Collaborates internationally on Diophantine equations and local-global principles. Her research contributes to King’s strong number theory tradition.
