Research homepage of K. Ilmari Kangasniemi

I am a researcher in mathematics currently working as a Visiting Asst. Professor at University of Cincinnati, Ohio, USA. I have been formerly affiliated with Syracuse University (2020-2023, Postdoc) and University of Helsinki (2016-2020, PhD student).

My research focuses on geometric analysis, with the main focus being in the study of higher-dimensional quasiconformal/quasiregular maps and other related mapping classes. In my study of these maps, I've used tools from a wide variety of fields such as complex analysis, algebraic topology, partial differential equations, Riemannian geometry, and dynamical systems.

I defended my PhD thesis in 2020 at the University of Helsinki. My thesis is on obstructions to the existence of uniformly quasiregular maps on closed Riemannian manifolds. The thesis was supervised by Pekka Pankka.

My research is currently supported by the National Science Foundation Analysis program grant DMS-2247469.
