Only one PhD, in math. The subject was in abstract harmonic analysis dealing with sets of uniqueness for trigonometric series.
In physics, I did not get a PhD, although I passed the qualifying exams (my responsibilities in the math department increased and I had no time for the physics research to finish).

A-nyway, we have a few math-y people. I have a love hatred relationship with that harsh mistress. I Like the Analysis approach.
Most of my research has related to various aspects of harmonic or functional analysis.
I wasn't expecting the Spanish Inquisition!
That's why I asked for a generic description. If I had the title of your thesis, I could potentially find out who you are, and that wasn't my intent. I'm genuinely interested, is all. I have a BSc in physics, and have taught math and physics in high school, between gigs in aerospace, which I worked in for ~26 years.
