Paul Glendinning is Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST). His research interests are in dynamical systems, models of the time-evolution of complex mathematical or physical processes. Paul Glendinning uses a deft combination of rigorous analysis, geometry and penetrating intuition to discover the key features of dynamical systems, and to describe their evolution. His work is concerned both with the frequently surprising and intricate mathematical properties of dynamical systems, and with their interpretation for applications to physical processes.
