报告人简介：

I was an undergraduate and a PhD student at the University of York, then a temporary lecturer at Bristol and Manchester before holding a Royal Society Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at the Technishe Hochshule, Darmstadt. I returned to York with an SERC (now EPSRC) Postdoctoral Fellowship, before taking up a lectureship at York. Currently I am Professor of Mathematics and Head of the Pure Mathematics Section.

I am an algebraist, interested in (amongst other things) structure theory for semigroups, endomorphism monoids of universal algebras, semigroups of quotients,S-acts over a monoidSandT-posets over an ordered monoidT. Several of these themes appear in my recent work, which has focused on free idempotent generated semigroups. Further details of my publications maybe found in the York Research Database; further preprints and unpublished research notes areavailable athttp://www-users.york.ac.uk/~varg1/gpubs.htm.

The last decade has seen me involved in the Athena SWAN movement, which aims to promote the careers of women in science. Currently I am editor of several journals, including Semigroup Forum.
