My
PhD adviser is Alberto
Cattaneo.
Here is a short Curriculum
Vitae (26.10.2018).
Research
I
am currently studying some questions at the interesection of
symplectic/Poisson
geometry
and quiver/poset representation theory.
For example, I am
classifying various arrangements of special linear subspaces in
symplectic vector spaces.
Here are two article I’ve written,
together with Alan
Weinstein, on this topic:
* (Co)isotropic
pairs in Poisson and presymplectic vector spaces
*
Decomposition
of (co)isotropic relations
Besides being of
pure-mathematical interest, objects of linear symplectic geometry
also arise in various applied settings.
I recently learned more
about such applications as a participant in the Adjoint
School and workshop in applied category theory.
In the
context of the workshop, I also worked with John
Baez, Blake
Pollard, and Maru
Sarazola on understanding coupling
in biochemistry.
Service
I
am a co-organizer of the Zurich
Graduate Colloquium.
