Biography

Associate Professor

BMath, MMath, PhD (Waterloo)

Dr. Horrocks works to develop fundamental mathematics. He researches a branch of mathematics known as combinatorics, with a focus on graph theory, partially ordered sets, and game theory. He has a particular interest in game theory, which is concerned with the mathematical analysis of two-player games such as chess.
