Bachelor and master projects
I am happy to supervise theses in spectral geometry, hamiltonian mechanics, symplectic or contact geometry, sub-Riemannian geometry, semiclassical analysis, geometric integration, ergodic theory and mathematical billiards.
Feel free to contact me, especially if you are interested in a project around spectral theory, sub-Riemannian geometry or constructive mathematics (theorem proving in Lean), but I am generally open to discuss possible ideas also outside those subjects.
