The earlier work of Uhlmann was in microlocal analysis and propagation of singularities for equations with multiple characteristics, in particular in understanding the phenomenon of conical refraction.

He and Richard Burt Melrose pioneered the study of paired Lagrangian distributions.

A striking application of this theory was given in the article with Allan Greenleaf on restricted X-ray transform.

He and John Sylvester made a major breakthrough in Calderón's inverse problem that has led to many other developments including the case of partial data.

Applications of this problem include Electrical resistivity tomography in geophysics and Electrical impedance tomography in medical imaging.

Another major breakthrough was the solution of the boundary rigidity problem in two dimensions with Leonid Pestov and in higher dimensions with Plamen Stefanov and András Vasy.

Uhlmann has also been interested in cloaking and invisibility.

Uhlmann postulates the first mathematical equations to create invisible materials.

He and coauthors pioneered the idea of transformation optics for the case of electrostatics.
