James Jones

Hello! I'm James, I am currently a doctoral researcher at Loughborough University, supervised by Dr. Alan Thompson. I am interested in algebraic geometry and my PhD  project is titled "Type II Degenerations of K3 Surfaces of Degree 4". I have recently uploaded a paper to arXiv based on this work, check it out here! 

Before this I was an MMath student at the University of Warwick and my dissertation, titled "A full exceptional sequence in Db(Coh(Pn)) ", was supervised by Dr. Christian Böhning.

Here is a copy of my CV - I am currently on the job market looking for postdoctoral positions commencing from summer 2025.

In my spare time, I enjoy playing saxophone and regularly play and perform with Tuxedo Swing and LSU Classical at Loughborough University.

The above photo was taken in February 2023 during the filming of the 53rd season of University Challenge, where I competed for Loughborough University.
