Dr Thomas Powell

I am interested in applying tools from mathematical logic to probability theory, particularly to stochastic approximation algorithms, where I my focus is on general convergence results with quantitative information, such as convergence rates.

Research interests

  • Applications of logic in pure and applied probability.
  • Stochastic optimization.
  • Functional analysis.
