Peter D. Jarvis is an Australian physicist notable for his work on applications of group theory to physical problems, particularly supersymmetry in the genetic code. He has also applied classical invariant theory to problems of quantum physics (entanglement measures for mixed state systems), and also to phylogenetic reconstruction (entanglement measures, including distance measures, for taxonomic pattern frequencies).

He obtained his BSc and MSc from the University of Adelaide. He obtained his PhD from Imperial College, London, 1972, under Robert Delbourgo, for a thesis entitled Noise Voltages Produced by Flux Motion in Superconductors.

He works at the School of Mathematics and Physics, University of Tasmania. His main interests are in algebraic structures in mathematical physics and their applications, especially combinatorial Hopf algebras in integrable systems and quantum field theory.
