Nicholas Buchdahl

School of Computer and Mathematical Sciences

Faculty of Sciences, Engineering and Technology


My research is normally in the area of complex geometric analysis, with some time also devoted to problems in low-dimensional differential topology.

I teach a variety of courses at all undergraduate and postgraduate levels, both in analysis and algebra.
