He moved to a chair at School of Mathematics at the University of Manchester in 1977 where he served as head of the Mathematics department between 1982 and 1984. He published more than 100 papers, mostly on group theory, and collaborated widely with other mathematicians. His main interest was locally finite groups where he used his wide knowledge of finite groups to prove properties of infinite groups which shared some of the features of finite groups. One recurrent theme appearing in his work was the relationship between the structure of groups and their subgroups consisting of elements fixed by particular automorphisms. Hartley is perhaps best known by undergraduates for his book Rings Modules and Linear Algebra, with Trevor Hawkes. [5] Personal lifeHartley was a keen hill walker, and it was while descending Helvellyn in the English Lake District that he collapsed with a heart attack and died. Awards and honoursThe 'Brian Hartley Room' at the School of Mathematics at Manchester is named in his honour.{{fact|date=December 2015}} References1. ^{{cite thesis|degree=PhD|publisher=University of Warwick|title=Subideals of Lie algebras|first= Ian|last=Stewart|date=1969|url=http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.594893|oclc=}} {{open access}} {{Authority control}}{{Use dmy dates|date=March 2011}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Hartley, Brian}}{{UK-mathematician-stub}}2. ^T.
