معرفی
Radha Kessar is the Fielden Chair in Pure Mathematics at the University of Manchester, a position she has held since April 2024. She has previously served as Professor at City, University of London, and held academic positions at the University of Aberdeen and The Ohio State University. Her departmental affiliation is in Pure Mathematics.
Her research focuses on deep algebraic structures in group theory and representation theory. Key areas include modular representation theory, finite groups, symmetric groups, defect groups, cohomology, and Lie groups. She employs advanced algebraic techniques to study the structure and representations of finite and algebraic groups.
Her recent publications reveal a strong trend in the interplay between representation theory and algebraic topology, particularly in the context of compact groups and symmetric groups. She frequently collaborates with leading mathematicians such as Gunter Malle and Markus Linckelmann, contributing to foundational results in weight theory and cohomology.
