Robin Chapman Memorial Lecture

This is an occasional lecture in honour of our esteemed Exeter colleague and friend, Dr Robin Chapman, who sadly and unexpectedly passed away in October 2020. Robin was a lecturer in the department since 1990; he was well known for his very wide knowledge of pure mathematics and his ability to find simple and elegant solutions to difficult problems.
