Academic Achievements
- Main research activities focus on the colouring problem in various contexts, including graph powers, locally sparse graphs, distributed colouring, randomised algorithms. Also worked on problems from Bio-Informatics related to circular codes, using efficient graph theoretical tools. Preprints: Fractional domatic number and minimum degree (with Quentin Chuet, Hugo Demaret, Hoang La); Vertex-partitions of 2-edge-colored graphs (with Jørgen Bang-Jensen, Anders Yeo).
Research Experience
- Held three postdoctoral positions: Three months postdoc at ULB under the supervision of Gwenaël Joret; One year postdoc in the G-SCOP lab under the supervision of Louis Esperet; One year postdoc in Inria Sophia Antipolis under the supervision of Frédéric Havet.
Education
- Obtained a doctorate in Mathematics from Radboud University and in Computer Sciences from the Université de Lorraine on 04/11/2019. My PhD was supervised by Ross Kang and Jean-Sébastien Sereni. My thesis was awarded the Charles Delorme prize, which honors each year an outstanding thesis in Graph Theory.
Background
- Graph Theory, Combinatorics, Probabilistic Method. Since September 1st, 2021, I am an associate professor (maître de conférences) in Université Paris-Saclay. I am doing my research at the LISN in the team GALaC, and I am teaching at the Faculté des Sciences d'Orsay.
