Henrique N. Sá Earp
Bachelor in Mathematics (2001) and Masters in Applied Mathematics at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (2002), Masters in Theoretical Physics (Part III of the Math Tripos) at the University of Cambridge (2004) and Ph.D. in Mathematics at Imperial College London (2009), supervised by Simon Donaldson. I work in Gauge Theory, somewhere in the intersection of Differential/Algebraic Geometry, Topology and nonlinear Partial Differential Equations. Currently my research focuses on gauge theory over manifolds with special holonomy, particularly G2-manifolds. Related themes include asymptotically cylindrical Calabi-Yau geometry and the construction of 'asymptotically stable' holomorphic bundles. I am generally interested in moduli problems of differential/ algebraic/ complex geometry and corresponding analytical methods; as well as applications to String/M-theory. Besides mathematics, I am mostly involved with ecosocialism and Aikido.
