About

My work is in the intersection of algebraic geometry and commutative algebra, frequently with a view towards applications. I am happy to use tools from infty-cats, stack theory to representation theory to combinatorics and computational tools such as Magma, M2. I work in particular on deformations of zero-dimensional objects, Bialynicki-Birula decompositions, Hilbert and Quot schemes, applications to tensors and secants varieties, applications to motivic homotopy theory etc.
See my papers or my poster for details. If you want to discuss, just send me an email!

News

• My joint paper with Joseph Landsberg and Arpan Pal on minimal border rank tensors is accepted in Mathematiche Annalen. The interesting part is that such tensors are algebraic: they come from a bilinear map between modules. Also they have a new invariant: 111-algebra, which is unexpected (there exist few such interesting invariants) was a small wonder to find.
