EPSRC Earmarked Research Studentship Mathematics Programme Identities among relations for monoids and categories Start: October, 1995 I would be grateful if this studentship could be drawn to the attention of any appropriate person. The full funding would be given to students with UK residential qualifications; EC citizens do qualify, and get fees, but no grant, so it seems unlikely to be appropriate more generally. The work will apply 2-categories and 2-groupoids in areas as in the title, and in areas related to aspects of computer science. It is expected to involve symbolic computation with AXIOM, GAP, MAGMA. The School of Mathematics has a networked Research Laboratory with a DEC Alpha 2100 server, model 4/200, supported by EPSRC and University grants.
