Research activity

I am a third year Ph.D student in Algebraic Geometry, under the supervision of Prof. Ivan Cheltsov.

My research interests lie essentially in birational geometry, which includes rationality problems, minimal model program, and K-stability of Fano varieties. I am investigating these problems principally in a G-equivariant setting, and my current main focus is the finite subgroups of Cremona groups.

G-solid rational surfaces

We classify all the G-solid rational surfaces over the field of complex numbers, for finite group actions.

To appear in European Journal of Mathematics.

K-stability and space sextic curves of genus three

We study Fano threefolds obtained by blowing-up the three-dimensional projective space along a smooth curve of degree six and genus three.
