Ben graduated with his MMath in Mathematics from the University of Reading in July 2024, after completing his thesis titled “General Second-Order L^infty Variational Problems” which investigated what happens in the calculus of variations when you try to minimise the supremum instead of an integral. During this research, Ben was introduced to how numerical analysis can be used to provide insights into complex mathematical phenomena, particularly in PDE theory, where exact solutions can be elusive but applications are vast. Ben is also excited to learn more about machine learning, which has interested him since A Level.
Outside of mathematics, Ben runs a photography instagram account, and enjoys cooking and gaming.
