Personal Information
I am currently a visiting fellow at the Open University in Milton Keynes, UK in Dr. Reem Yassawi's group. I am currently supported by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) through the Postdoctoral Researchers International Mobility Experience (PRIME) Programme. I was previously a postdoctoral research associate at Bielefeld University, under Michael Baake's group. I completed my PhD (Dr. Math.) in June 2019 at the same university, under the supervision of Dr. Michael Baake and Dr. Franz Gähler. My PhD thesis is entitled "Lyapunov Exponents in the Spectral Theory of Primitive Inflation Systems". For this work, I was awarded the Dissertationspreis by the Universitätsgesellschaft Bielefeld for the best PhD dissertation for the Faculty of Mathematics in 2019. My research is focused on substitution dynamical systems and their generalisations, which include- Random substitutions
- Substitutions on infinite alphabets
- Regular sequences
- Multi-dimensional substitution shifts
Among my other topics of interest are other areas in mathematical physics, such as deformation quantisation and discrete Schrödinger operators.
When I am not doing Maths, most likely I am playing volleyball or playing the guitar.
