Macdonald became Fielden Professor at Manchester in 1972, and professor at Queen Mary College, University of London, in 1976. He worked on symmetric products of algebraic curves, Jordan algebras and the representation theory of groups over local fields. In 1972 he proved the Macdonald identities, after a pattern known to Freeman Dyson.
