Rachel Skipper

Rachel Skipper works in geometric group theory, a branch of mathematics that studies groups (algebraic structures capturing symmetry) using geometric and topological tools like actions on trees and graphs. Much of her work focuses on Thompson's groups and related 'Higman-Thompson' and braided/ribbon variants, examining their generation, subgroup structure, and finiteness properties. This research contributes to understanding infinite discrete groups that arise in topology, logic, and dynamics.

Publication output has grown over the last decade, rising from occasional papers in the late 2010s to a notably higher and still increasing rate in 2024-2025.
