PhD Research Scholar from LPU’s Department of Mathematics Invited to the UK

A PhD scholar from The Department of Mathematics at LPU was invited to a four-day 19^th ‘Postgraduate Group Theory Conference’ by the Department of Pure Mathematics & Mathematical Statistics (DPMMS). Department of Pure Mathematics & Mathematical Statistics (DPMMS) is supported by London Mathematical Society and the Heilbronn Institute for Mathematical Research in England. This collaboration provides an excellent and highly stimulating research environment and mathematical activities. It has made a number of significant contributions to mathematics and data science.

Pranav Sharma, a JRF research scholar, presented his innovative research along with 50+ researchers from top universities at University of Cambridge, England. This annual conference witnessed participants from world class universities including top-ranked Oxford, 4^th ranked Cambridge, 8^th ranked Imperial College of London, 11^th ranked EPFL of Switzerland, Valencia of Spain and more. They primarily focused on innovative research in the field of ‘Group Theory and Related Areas’.

Pranav’s work on ‘locally quasi-convex convergence groups’ was widely appreciated by the academic researchers and experts from the top universities. The conference was an ideal platform to present the valuable and innovative research results, as it was an excellent opportunity to exchange the findings with researchers from UK, Europe and other parts of the world especially those who possess similar research interests. The guests of honor of the conference- Prof (Dr) Gunter Malle of Technische University of Germany and Dr Nadia Mazza of Lancaster University, UK took a keen interest in Pranav’s research work and his findings attracted maximum applauds.

Congratulating the top research-oriented LPU student, LPU Chancellor Mr. Ashok Mittal shared: “This is another illustrious research made by LPU research scholar in the algebraic realms where he stood along with scholars from top ranked universities of the world including first ranked Oxford University. I anticipate that his findings will surely be helpful to the scientists of the country and the globe in their various calculative findings aimed for the goodness of one and all in this universe.”

LPU always encourages the propagation of research works, for which it has various industry partnerships and tie-ups. Of late, Team of LPU researchers has won a huge research grant of 10.8 million through Indo-Canadian Impact project from DBT, Govt of India.
