Abstract
Philip Scott, better known to his friends and colleagues as Phil, was a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Ottawa (Canada). Sadly, Phil passed away
1
after a long battle with cancer - which he bravely fought till the very end - on 18 December 2023 at the age of 76. Phil was born on 27 December 1947 in Leeds (UK). When Phil was still a baby, his family moved to North Carolina (USA), where he spent his childhood. He went on to study mathematics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (USA), before moving to Canada in the 1970s. Phil did his Ph.D. at the University of Waterloo (Canada), supervised by Denis Higgs, and obtained his doctorate in pure mathematics in 1976. Phil joined the Mathematics Department at the University of Ottawa in 1982, eventually becoming Professor Emeritus, and remained there until his passing.
