Paul S. Aspinwall

January 01, 1970

Paul Stephen Aspinwall (born 26 January 1964 in England) is a British theoretical physicist and mathematician, who works on string theory (including dualities, mirror symmetry, D-branes, and Calabi–Yau manifolds) and also algebraic geometry.

Aspinwall received his early education at Bydales School, Marske-by-the-Sea and Prior Pursglove College, Guisborough. He then studied at the University of Oxford with a focus on theoretical elementary particle physics. He received his bachelor's degree in 1985 and his Ph.D. in 1988.[1] He is now a professor of mathematics and physics at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina.

In 1998 he was an Invited Speaker with talk (String theory and duality) at the ICM in Berlin.[2] In 1999 he was a Sloan Fellow.
