ABartel Alex Bartel
I currently have two Ph.D. students, and will be looking to take on new ones. If you liked your courses on algebraic number theory, Galois theory, and representation theory of finite groups, and optionally elliptic curves, and are considering doing a Ph.D. that combines these topics, then feel free to contact me. You can also have a look at the papers on my web page to find out more specifically what kinds of topics I am interested in.
Jim Jim Belk
I am interested in supervising PhD students in geometric group theory or geometric topology, and my research has significant connections to complex dynamics, fractal geometry, automata theory, quasiconformal geometry, and symbolic dynamics. Please see my web page or contact me for more information.
Gwyn Bellamy Gwyn Bellamy
I am interested in taking on additional PhD students. If you might be interested in doing a PhD under my supervision, please just send me an email. I am happy to suggest topics in representation theory, geometric representation theory, or on the interface of representation theory and algebraic geometry.

Brendle2 Tara Brendle
Possible PhD projects include a variety of topics in geometric group theory and low-dimensional topology, with a particular focus on structures related to surfaces, such as mapping class groups and braid groups.
Vaibhav Vaibhav Gadre
I currently have one PhD student. I am looking to take on new students. To get an idea of my mathematical interests please go to my webpage.
Me2 Damián Gvirtz-Chen
I am looking to take on new PhD students and am happy to be contacted via email. You can have a glance at my personal webpage for the type of problems around rational points on higher-dimensional varieties that you could be working on. If you are broadly interested in employing a combination of techniques from geometry, algebra, number theory and topology, quite possibly with a computational twist, this is a great area to work in!
Ana2 Ana Lecuona
I have two PhD students finishing their program (Tanushree Shah and Lisa Lokteva) and two starting in 2022-2023. Currently I am not planning on taking new students, but if you want further information or discuss about it, please do contact me. My main field of interest is low dimensional topology. You can get some idea of the type of problems I think about by taking a look at my webpage (link above, on my name). You can contact me at this address.

I am currently accepting students in algebraic and geometric topology. I am particularly interested in 3- and 4-manifolds, knots and links, mapping class groups, surgery theory, and exotic phenomena. My name above links to my website. I suggest browsing it to get an idea of my work. In particular see this page. Please get in touch if you would like to work with me.
336739 Anna Puskás
I am looking to take on PhD students. My interests lie at the intersection of representation theory, number theory, and algebraic combinatorics. Generally, I like thinking about objects coming from representation theory or number theory in terms of algebraic combinatorics. If you think you may be interested in working with me, please send me an email! For further information, you can also have a look at my website, and/or my papers.
Chris2 Christian Voigt
I’m always interested to speak to potential PhD students, and I’m happy to suggest topics in noncommutative geometry, operator K-theory, and quantum groups. Please check my Christian Voigt or contact me for more information on my research.
Andy Photo Andy Wand
I currently supervise/co-supervise several students in various topics across low dimensional topology, focusing mainly on contact topology, aspects of knot theory, and mapping class groups of surfaces. I am happy to discuss potential supervision, and can be reached here.
Michaelwemyss Michael Wemyss
I currently advise four PhD students, and two will be graduating around summer 2025, so I am looking to take on students in the upcoming round (for Sep 2025 start). To get a feel for the types of mathematics I think about, you can check out my graduate lectures, or my papers on my webpage, arXiv, or Google Scholar.
Whittaker OperaHouse Michael Whittaker
I am interested in supervising additional PhD students, and have a wide range of projects available. My recent focus has been on self-similar groups, aperiodic tilings, and C*-algebras arising from topological dynamical systems. For more info on my research interests, see my webpage.
RXia Runlian Xia
I currently have two PhD students jointly with Joachim Zacharias, and I am open to taking more PhD students. I have wide interests in topics related to interactions between operator algebras and harmonic analysis. My recent research focus is on Calderón–Zygmund operators/Fourier multipliers on non-commutative Lp spaces associated with von Neumann algebras (non-commutative counterparts of measure spaces). If you are interested in any of these topics, you could reach me here.
Joachim Joachim Zacharias
I am interested in supervising further PhD students in the field of operator algebras and related topics. Please contact me by e-mail if you would like to do a PhD under my supervision/co-supervision. I am happy to suggest topics in C*-algebra theory and dynamical systems, classification of simple C*-algebras, approximation properties of groups and operator algebras, K-theory and related topics.

I will start at Glasgow in January 2025, and am happy to hear from prospective students who might be interested to work on algebra or representation theory with a view towards quantum physics. Several PhD projects are available, and can be tailored towards your experience and interests; a background in physics is not required. See also my webpage, and feel free to write to me if you'd like to know more – you can reach me at jules⊕lamers⊗glasgow⊕ac⊕uk.

I am currently supervising several PhD students, but I am always happy to hear from more prospective students interested in algorithmic applications of discrete mathematics; some aspects of my work also have applications to more applied areas including statistics, social network analysis and precision medicine (visit my personal webpage for more details). As I am based in the School of Computing Science the application process is slightly different, and in particular a research proposal is required - see the webpage or contact me for more information.

I currently have two PhD student (one jointly supervised with Dr Misha Feigin) and I would be very interested in supervising more students. An informal description of my research may be found here and my research papers may be found on arXiv and on ResearchGate, but if you are interested, please just contact me directly.
