Jonathan Peter Keating FRS is a British mathematician. Since 2012 he has been the Henry Overton Wills Professor of Mathematics at the University of Bristol, where he served as Dean of the Faculty of Science (2009-2013). He has made significant contributions to applied mathematics and mathematical physics; in particular to quantum chaos, random matrix theory and number theory.

Education

He read for an MA in Physics at New College, Oxford, before obtaining his PhD in 1989 at the University of Bristol under the supervision of Sir Michael Berry FRS.[1][2]

Research and career

He lectured in Applied Mathematics at the University of Manchester from 1991-95 before moving to the University of Bristol, as a Reader in Applied Mathematics (1995-1997) and then as a Professor in Mathematical Physics (1997-2012). He served as Head of the Mathematics Department (2001-2004) and was appointed to the Henry Overton Wills Chair in Mathematics at Bristol in 2012. His research has focused on Quantum Chaos, Random Matrix Theory and its connection to Number Theory, especially the theory of the Riemann zeta-function and other L-functions. He is known for his work on the resummation of semiclassical periodic orbit formulae, the statistics of quantum energy levels, quantum maps, quantum graphs, the statistics of the zeros of the Riemann zeta-function and other L-functions, and the moments of the Riemann zeta-function and other L-functions. He has served on the editorial boards of several peer reviewed scientific journals including:

  • Member (1996–2004) of the Editorial Board of Journal of Physics A.
  • Member (1997–2004) of the Editorial Board of Nonlinearity.
  • Joint Editor-in-Chief (2004–2012) of Nonlinearity.
  • Member (2003–2017) of the Editorial Board of Applied Mathematics Research Express.
  • Member (2007–present) of the Editorial Board of Journal of Mathematical Physics.

In September 2019 he will succeed Sir John Ball FRS as Sedleian Professor of Natural Philosophy at the University of Oxford.[3]

In November 2019 he will succeed Caroline Series FRS as President of the London Mathematical Society.[4]

His doctoral students include[5] Nina Snaith.

Awards and honours

Between 2004 and 2009 he was supported by an EPSRC Senior Research Fellowship.

He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 2009.[6]

In 2010, he was awarded the London Mathematical Society's Fröhlich Prize.[7]

In 2014, he was awarded a Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award.[8]

He holds an ERC Advanced Grant.[9]
