Research summary

Trevor D. Wooley works in analytic number theory, a branch of mathematics that studies whole numbers and their patterns using tools from calculus and analysis. His research focuses on questions like Waring's problem (representing numbers as sums of powers), equidistribution of number sequences, and refining techniques such as the 'circle method' and 'Weyl sums' used to count and estimate solutions to equations. Prospective students would engage with highly technical, proof-based work aimed at longstanding open problems in the theory of numbers.

Publication output was modest and variable from 2017-2020, rose sharply to a peak in 2022-2023, and has since tapered off somewhat through 2024-2026, though it remains higher than the earlier part of the decade.
