I am mostly working on stochastic analysis and its application to mathematical physics and geometry, although I have broad interests in mathematics.
You can find my CV here.
At the moment my research is primarily focused on Symanzik/Dynkin's approach to constructive quantum field theory, especially when applied to the Yang-Mills-Higgs field : the main goal is to provide a construction of the field, as well as formula for polynomial moments in its so-called string and loop observables, in term of some random variables associated to brownian paths (these moments are roughly speaking the gauge-invariant equivalent to the correlation functions of a scalar field).
This problem brings many questions in relation with other area in stochastic analysis, in connection in particular to determinants of laplace-type operator and more general partition functions. Brownian loop soup and SLE2 processes, in particular, are naturally connected to this problem.
Initially motivated by its relation to the Higgs-Yang-Mills field,
I heavily studied the winding function associated with a planar Brownian loop. Considered as a function defined on the plane, it behave as a log-correlated field with very outstanding properties.
In french, a more detailed summary of my work and research project (dated from early 2026).
Some detailed presentation (in english) of Symanzik's program applied to the Higgs--Yang--Mills fields will be added shortly, come back later if you are interested!
Main interests :
- Planar Brownian motion, Brownian windings, stochastic Green' formula, Amperean area,
Brownian motion interacting with random magnetic impurities, occupation and intersection measures.
- EQFT, Yang-Mills-Higgs field, Gaussian free field and log-correlated fields in general, Phi(4).
- Brownian loop soup, multiplicative chaoses and LQG, loop-erased random walks and SLE.
- Stochastic approaches to index theory, analytic torsion, measures on moduli spaces, determinant of Laplacians and Dirac operators.
- Rough path theory and Young integration (in particular, Stokes' theorems and other identities of geometric nature in these framework).
- Occasionally I also worked on problems in random matrix theory, reflected processes, stable processes.
I am actually in post-doc at the ENS de Lyon, supervised by Adrien Kassel. Previously I was a PDRA at the university of Warwick and at the university of Oxford.
I did my PhD in Paris (LPSM) supervised by Thierry Lévy.
I also spend some time at the universities of Luxembourg, Vienna, and Cambridge. My collaborators include Pierre Perruchaud and
Nathanaël Berestycki.
