Francis Brown is a Franco-British mathematician who works on Arithmetic geometry and Quantum Field Theory.
Brown studied at the University of Cambridge and the École normale supérieure (Paris) and University of Bordeaux,[1] with Pierre Cartier, graduating in 2006 with a Ph.D. He then spent time at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics and Mittag-Leffler Institute. In 2007 he moved to Institut de mathématiques de Jussieu – Paris Rive Gauche where he won a European Research Council starter grant in 2010. In 2012, he moved to the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques and was awarded a CNRS Bronze Medal and Élie Cartan Prize for his proof of two conjectures related to multiple zeta functions.[2] [3] He had a Von Neumann Fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Study from 2014 to 2015 and is currently a senior research fellow at All Souls College, at the University of Oxford.
Brown's work is on the intersection of algebraic geometry and number theory. He has published on Tate Motives.[4] He also works on Zeta functions in quantum field theory.
