Email Addresss.isherwood.22@abdn.ac.ukSchool/DepartmentSchool of Natural and Computing Sciences Biography I am from the Northwest of England. My undergraduate MMath was at The University of York. I focused on algebra and analysis, and my dissertation was on inverse semigroups and inductive groupoids. Then I went on to do an MPhil in Mathematics, undertaken at the University of Essex; my supervisor was Prof. Gerald Williams, and together we worked on cyclically presented groups of positive word length four. My research is on a function called Δ (capital delta), defined as the maximum diameter of the Cayley graph of a group G with respect to the conjugates of S and of S^(-1) for finite normally generating subsets S of G. The project was advertised by the University of Aberdeen as, "Groups, S
