Welcome on my personal webpage !
I am currently a post-doc in Mathematics at the
Max-Planck institute for Mathematics in the sciences
in Leipzig,
working in Anna Wienhard's
Geometry, Groups, and Dynamics
research group.
I defended my PhD in December 2020 at
Strasbourg's University
under the supervision of
Charles Frances.
Until September 2021 I was ATER (temporary teacher and researcher) at Strasbourg's University,
and in 2021-2023 I was a postdoctoral fellow
at the Mathematics department of the Technion in Haifa,
working with
Tali Pinsky.
Here is my
CV for more informations (updated in march 2024).
Research Interests
I am interested in differentiable dynamical systems in connection with geometric structures,
and in the informations (and possible rigidity) that such interactions may give - on the dynamics or on the geometry.
My work is related to the folllowing subjects (whose list is highly non-exhaustive):
-
Rigid geometric structures, Parabolic Cartan geometries, Path geometries, Flag structures in dimension 3;
-
Partially Hyperbolic diffeomorphisms, Anosov flows;
-
Singular Lorentzian surfaces; Interval exchange maps.
Here is a short
research project written in english in december 2023,
describing my past work, and current and future research projects.
Here is a longer research project written in french in march 2024.

Other documents
-
This short text is a summary of some folklore results about distributions invariant
by Anosov flows and Partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms,
which are quite known but whose proofs are less,
and spread out in the literature.
I prove a result for which I could not find references,
and outline the way to find the proofs of the other results in the literature.
-
This short text
contains details about a result used in the paper 1 of the above list,
which links coverings to the property of path-lifting in the directions of a splitting within one-dimensional distributions.
-
The
manuscript
of my Ph.D thesis
entitled Some geometrical and dynamical properties of Lagrangian contact structures
(essentially in french, with one chapter and an abstract in english).
-
In september 2017, I defended my Master thesis at the university of Strasbourg under the supervision of Charles Frances, entitled
Contact Anosov flows in dimension three, through associated Lagrangian contact structures
(the manuscript is in french).

Teaching
I will not teach this year, but you can find in my CV a full description
of my many past teaching, supervising and outreach activities.
Supervision
In 2021, I supervised the master's thesis of Justin Rieber (M2 agrégation),
whose subject was
Poincaré-Bendixson Theorem.
Justin is now a high-school teacher.
