Associate Professor of mathematics at ETH Zürich, Switzerland

News 
I am an editor of the new journal Mathematical Discourse, which publishes videos of research talks in pure mathematics of the highest quality. Our goal is to promote and nourish a culture which values communication as an essential part of the research process. Giving a mathematical talk captures the human side of mathematics in a unique way, and supporting these human aspects of our discipline will be ever more important in the coming years. 


My research lies at the interface of complex analysis and probability theory, focusing on themes that illuminate the connections among Random conformal geometry, Geometric function theory, and Teichmüller theory. The motivation also comes from Mathematical Physics. I spend most of my time playing with Loewner energy, Schramm-Loewner evolutions, the Gaussian free field, Weil-Petersson Teichmüller space, determinants of Laplacians, the Brownian loop measure, hyperbolic surfaces and 3-manifolds, etc. You are welcome to check out the slides and videos of my research lectures. You can also find my inaugural lecture here to get an idea about my research.

I am a co-PI of the Simons collaboration on Probabilistic paths to Quantum Field theory, and my research group is also supported by the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI) 

I am an editor of the Bulletin and the Journal of London Mathematical Society.

If you are looking for master's thesis, master's semester project, or bachelor's semester project supervision, please read this. Information about my courses at ETH is available on Moodle and accessible to registered students.
