Adam Harper

Adam Harper is a mathematician specializing in number theory, particularly in analytic, combinatorial, and probabilistic number theory. He currently serves as a Professor at the University of Warwick in England. In 2019, Harper was awarded the SASTRA Ramanujan Prize for his outstanding contributions to analytic and probabilistic number theory. This prestigious prize is given annually to individuals under the age of 32 in recognition of their exceptional achievements in mathematics influenced by Srinivasa Ramanujan. Harper's research focuses on various topics such as the theory of the Riemann zeta function, random multiplicative functions, S-unit equations, smooth numbers, the large sieve, and the innovative 'pretentious' approach to number theory. His work demonstrates expertise in probabilistic methods applied to analytic number theory.
