Hello everyone!
I’m Federica. Since October 1st, 2025, I am a research associate at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, working on the project “The Geometry of the Isomorphism Problem for Artin Groups,” led by Alexandre Martin.
I defended my Ph.D. thesis, “Topological and Algebraic Aspects of Virtual Artin Groups,” on July 9th, 2025, at Université Bourgogne Franche-Comté in Dijon (France), under the supervision of Luis Paris.
My research focuses on the geometry of virtual Artin groups. I am particularly interested in Artin groups, virtual braids, and virtual Artin groups, which I study from both algebraic and geometric/topological perspectives.
