Summary

I am a CONACYT Research fellow in Mathematics at CIMAT, in the City of Guanajuato, Mexico, since may 2019. I belong to the CIMAT's Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry Academic Cluster.

I studied at the Institut de Mathématiques de Jussieu (now Institut de Mathématiques de Jussieu-Paris Rive Gauche) of the Pierre and Marie Curie University (also known as UPMC, Paris 6, and now Sorbonne University) from 2008 to 2015, under the joint direction of Erwan Brugallé and Jean-Jacques Risler.

I was a member of the research team Analyse Algébrique. My PhD thesis (Tropical intersection theory, and real inflection points of real algebraic curves) can be downloaded from here.

Research

Areas of interest

  1. Algebraic and Analytic (non-Archimedean) Geometry. Real Algebraic, Tropical Algebraic, Rigid Algebraic and non-Archimedean Algebraic.
  2. Combinatorics. (Coxeter, infinite) Matroids, Tropical mathematics, Ordered structures.
  3. Algebraic and tropical methods to solve algebraic differential equations. Differential and Tropical Differential Algebraic Geometry.
  4. Geometry of Algebraic Structures Close to Commutative Rings.
  5. Enumerative and Inflection phenomena in Real Algebraic Geometry.

Right now I am very interested in the third subject. You can find a comprehensive introduction to the state of the art on the subject in our recent preprint Exploring tropical differential equations, which grew up from the previous friendly introduction that can be found  here. (first version : march 2020)

More details on some of my ongoing research projects are available in my Research Gate site.

Active research groups and projects

  1. Geometry of algebraic structures close to commutative rings. Details.
  2. Algebraic and tropical methods to solve algebraic differential equations.
    Currently an external participant in the Project "Existence of rational solutions in the Busemann-von Karman-Tsien boundary layer", directed by Carla Valencia. IBERO University, Mexico City. Details.
