Research
I am a research associate in the Logic and Complexity group of Erich Grädel. Previously, I was at EPFL Lausanne and at LaBRI Bordeaux.
My research is on logical and algorithmic foundations of interactive systems, in particular:
- theory of infinite games
- fixed-point logics, μ-calculus
- verification and synthesis of open systems
- graph structure theory and complexity
Teaching
Algorithmic Model Theory — Summer 2008.
Office hours: Monday, 1:30 — 3:30 pm. Other times on request.
