Our research encompasses a broad range of topics within number theory. Some of our research interests include:
- Algebraic curves
- Algebraic and arithmetic dynamics
- Algorithmic number theory
- Analytic number theory
- Applications of number theory to spectral geometry
- Arithmetic geometry
- Arithmetic of linear differential equations
- Arithmetic statistics
- Diophantine problems
- Geometry of numbers
- Hypergeometric functions
- Number theory in function fields of positive characteristic
- Relation between number theory and logic: undecidability and o-minimality
Our members are part of the Dutch clusters on Discrete, Interactive and Algorithmic Mathematics, Algebra and Number Theory (DIAMANT) and Geometry and Quantum Theory (GQT).
