Adam Harper is a mathematician specialising in number theory, particularly in analytic, combinatorial and probabilistic number theory. He is currently a professor at the University of Warwick, England. Harper was awarded the SASTRA Ramanujan Prize in 2019 "for several outstanding contributions to analytic and probabilistic number theory."[1][2][3]
"Harper's research, both individually and in collaboration, covers the theory of the Riemann zeta function, random multiplicative functions, S-unit equations, smooth numbers, the large sieve, and the recent highly innovative "pretentious" approach to number theory. In establishing these results, he has shown mastery over probabilistic methods which he has used with remarkable effect in analytic number theory."
