Gaultier Lambert
About me
I am a research fellow at the Institut für Mathematik at the University of Zurich.
My research is supported by an ambizione grant (S-71114-05-01, CHF 534364) from the Swiss National Science Foundation.
I did my Ph.D. under the supervision of Kurt Johansson at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm.
Here you can find the manuscript of my thesis on
"Fluctuations of smooth linear statistics of determinantal point processes" that I defended in June 2016. From September 2016 to December 2018, I was a postdoc at the University of Zurich in the research group of Ashkan Nikeghbali. In 2017, I received a grant from the UZH Forschungskredit (# FK-17-112, CHF 108639) to support my research.
My mathematical interests lie at the interface between probability theory, analysis, combinatorics and mathematical physics. My research focuses on random matrices, statistical physics, and Gaussian Multiplicative Chaos.
If you are interested in doing a Master's thesis in probability theory related to any of the above topics and you would like to be working with me, I am actively looking for students! So, please do not hesitate to contact me!
