ABOUT ME
I am a mathematician from Genoa, where I also completed my undergraduate studies. I am currently in the last year of my PhD, and my research is conducted at MaLGa under the supervision of Giovanni S. Alberti.
EDUCATION
Nov 2023 - on going PhD in Mathematics, University of Genoa, Italy.
Sep 2021 - Oct 2023 MSc in Mathematics, University of Genoa, Italy. (Thesis title: Wavelets, Shearlets and Non-Linear Approximation)
Sep 2018 - Jul 2021 BSc in Mathematics, University of Genoa, Italy. (Thesis title: Compressive Sensing)
RESEARCH INTERESTS
My research is primarily focused on nonlinear inverse problems for partial differential equations, with a primary focus on the Calderón problem. My recent work branches in two main directions. The first looks at reconstruction methods, specifically using convex lifting to reframe the Calderón problem and bypass its inherent non-convexity. The second direction explores identifiability and sample complexity, using randomized sampling strategies to determine the minimum number of measurements required for recovery in infinite-dimensional settings.
