Julia Wolf
Julia Wolf is a British mathematician specialising in arithmetic combinatorics who was the 2016 winner of the Anne Bennett Prize of the London Mathematical Society. She is currently a professor in the Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics at the University of Cambridge. Education and career Wolf writes that her childhood ambition was to become a carpenter, and that she became attracted to science only after subscribing to ''Scientific American'' as a teenager. She read mathematics at Clare College, Cambridge, earning a bachelor's degree there in 2004 and completing the Mathematical Tripos in 2003. She remained at Cambridge for graduate study, and completed her PhD there in 2008. Her dissertation, ''Arithmetic Structure in Sets of Integers'', was supervised by Timothy Gowers. She was also mentored in her doctoral studies by Ben Green, whom she met when he was a postdoctoral researcher at Cambridge from 2001 to 2005. Since earning her doctorate she has been ...

Arithmetic Combinatorics
In mathematics, arithmetic combinatorics is a field in the intersection of number theory, combinatorics, ergodic theory and harmonic analysis. Scope Arithmetic combinatorics is about combinatorial estimates associated with arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division). Additive combinatorics is the special case when only the operations of addition and subtraction are involved. Ben Green explains arithmetic combinatorics in his review of "Additive Combinatorics" by Tao and Vu. Important results Szemerédi's theorem Szemerédi's theorem is a result in arithmetic combinatorics concerning arithmetic progressions in subsets of the integers. In 1936, Erdős and Turán conjectured. that every set of integers ''A'' with positive natural density contains a ''k'' term arithmetic progression for every ''k''. This conjecture, which became Szemerédi's theorem, generalizes the statement of van der Waerden's theorem. Green–Tao theorem and extensions The Gre ...

Academics Of The University Of Bristol
An academy (Attic Greek: Ἀκαδήμεια; Koine Greek Ἀκαδημία) is an institution of secondary or tertiary higher learning (and generally also research or honorary membership). The name traces back to Plato's school of philosophy, founded approximately 385 BC at Akademia, a sanctuary of Athena, the goddess of wisdom and skill, north of Athens, Greece. Etymology The word comes from the ''Academy'' in ancient Greece, which derives from the Athenian hero, ''Akademos''. Outside the city walls of Athens, the gymnasium was made famous by Plato as a center of learning. The sacred space, dedicated to the goddess of wisdom, Athena, had formerly been an olive grove, hence the expression "the groves of Academe". In these gardens, the philosopher Plato conversed with followers. Plato developed his sessions into a method of teaching philosophy and in 387 BC, established what is known today as the Old Academy. By extension, ''academia'' has come to mean the accumulation, dev ...
