Me.

I'm Kevin Buzzard (click for picture). Play my natural number game! Check out the Xena project, my blog for maths undergraduates about Lean, teaching the foundations of mathematics course at Imperial, and all of the things that Imperial undergraduates have taught me in the last two years. If you're at Imperial, here is some local information about how to get involved.

Xena and Lean

I am running a project whose goal is to teach mathematics undergraduates how to check their own work on a computer. Read about what the Xena project is trying to achieve here. If you're a first year undergraduate then some practical information about how to get involved is available here.

Research.

My publications and preprints.

Other research-related stuff including a whole bunch of my unpublished notes.

Teaching.

This is all now on Blackboard. If you want to solve the my introduction to proof example sheet questions in Lean, click here, and if you need help then come along to the Xena project on Thursday evenings in the MLC!

Other bits and bobs.

I am a member of the Editorial Board for the London Mathematical Society Student Texts book series. See my name in lights here.

The London Number Theory Seminar and London-Paris Number Theory Seminar.

Information about mailing lists (that a number theorist in London might want to be on).

Cassels - Froehlich. In January 2010 I was suddenly gripped by a desire to collate all errata that everyone knew in the classic textbook "Algebraic number theory" by Cassels and Fröhlich. Part of my motivation was that the London Mathematical Society (LMS) was going to reprint the book and it seemed to me (and the LMS) that there would be no harm in including a few pages of errata. The errata are almost all of a completely trivial or typographical nature, but a couple of them could throw the unwary. The errata are currently on display here [last updated 13/05/2012].

As well as that, Ecole Polytechnique student Dorian Ni compiled solutions to all the exercises in Cassels-Froehlich, over the summer of 2018. Here are his solutions -- I can't find anywhere else online which claims to have all of them.

Stuff that has now been relegated to the bottom.

From October to December 2008 I ran a number theory video seminar, broadcasting to anyone in the UK with access to an "access grid room". The page for that is here.

Joel and Zak's page, and Kezia's stuff.

In an attempt to fool a well-known search engine I once decided to put up a link to a picture of something that has very little if anything to do with automorphic forms (back by popular request) (hey it worked! Try going to google images and searching for automorphic forms).

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's...

This is my old list of junk (from 1996! Do any of the links work any more?).
This is another old list of junk (from 2001, the last time I had a chance to surf the internet).
