Dr. Scott Harper is an Assistant Professor in the School of Mathematics at the University of Birmingham and a 125th Anniversary Fellow. His research focuses on group theory, with grants from EPSRC and Leverhulme. He holds a PhD from the University of Bristol (2019) and MMath from the University of St Andrews (2015).
Research Interests: Group theory, including generating sets, subgroup structures, derangements, and their connections to representation theory, geometric group theory, Lie theory, and combinatorics. Also interests in proof formalisation, mathematics education, and the philosophy of mathematical practice.
Publications: Recent work includes studies on Kronecker classes, normal coverings, and minimal cover groups. His research emphasizes symmetry and its applications in finite and infinite groups.
Awards: Gold Medal at STEM for Britain (2021), EPSRC Postdoctoral Fellowship, Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship.
Grants & Teaching: Funded by EPSRC and Leverhulme. Previously taught at University of St Andrews and University of Bristol, focusing on advanced group theory and LaTeX for mathematics.
