CONACYT Postdoctoral Researcher

CIMAT-Mérida


I am a postdoctoral researcher working on algebraic topology under the supervision of José Cantarero at CIMAT Mérida. My current research centers on describing the homotopical properties of some complements of hyperplane arrangements.

Previously, I got my Ph. D. from the CINVESTAV research center under the supervision of Jesús González where I worked on the topological complexity of no-$k$-equal spaces, a kind of generalization of configuration spaces.
