Welcome
I am a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Bonn, where I work at the intersection of pure mathematics, artificial intelligence and theoretical physics, as part of the Computation and AI of mathematical discovery project.
This website contains information about my research, publications, talks, and academic activities.
About
My main research theme is AI-assisted mathematical discovery, in various contexts. Since I moved to Bonn in October 2025, I have been focusing on applications of machine learning to discrete combinatorial problems naturally arising in representation theory. Before that, I worked with neural network techniques to answer questions about geometry, both differential and algebraic, partly motivated by string theory. Overall, I am fascinated by the development of novel computational approaches that bridge the gap between abstract mathematical theory and concrete algorithmic implementation, with applications to pure mathematics and mathematical physics. On the analytical side, I have been very interested in understanding the differential geometry/topology of exotic spheres in dimension 7.
Before joining the University of Bonn, I completed my Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics at Queen Mary University of London under the supervision of David Berman, passing my viva on September 2nd, 2025. Prior to that, I earned my MSc in Quantum Fields and Fundamental Forces with Distinction from Imperial College London, and my BSc in Physics with Theoretical Physics, also from Imperial College London.
