Overview

Features

The Analysis, Algebra and Geometry doctoral programme at University of Bayreuth, which is supported by the Faculty of Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science, prepares particularly well-suited students for independent research in the field of theoretical mathematics, especially analysis, algebra, number theory, and geometry.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

The areas mentioned above are not just randomly grouped together; on the contrary, there are manifold relationships between them. For example, many methods devised in analysis and algebra are used in geometry. Indeed, many of the most important developments of recent years have been made possible by mathematically interdisciplinary methods.

This ought also be reflected in the doctoral programme: students should not only conduct research in their own field, but also acquire an overview of the latest results and methods in neighbouring fields, not least to be able to apply them in their thesis project if necessary.
