 Here is my curriculum vitae and list of publications
            
Research
My work revolves around Topological Data Analysis (TDA), including its
            theoretical
            developments and practical applications.
            
Topological inference:
            Stability and consistency of persistent homology, estimation
            of topological invariants other than homology groups, varifold formalism, detection of Lie group symmetries.
            
Combinatorial topology:
            Triangulation of manifolds, simplicial approximation, classifying spaces, quantitative (simplicial)
            homotopy.
            
Concrete applications:
            Medical image analysis, (equivariant) neural networks, large/dynamic graphs, natural language processing,
            Brazilian law.
