Geoffrey Richard Grimmett FRS[6] OLY (born 20 December 1950)[1] is an English mathematician known for his work on the mathematics of random systems arising in probability theory[7][8][9] and statistical mechanics, especially percolation theory[10] and the contact process.[11][2] He is the Professor of Mathematical Statistics in the Statistical Laboratory, University of Cambridge, and was the Master of Downing College, Cambridge, from 2013 to 2018.[12]
