BIMSA Member Seminar | Isoresidual fibration: at the crossroads of complex analysis, flat geometry and combinatorics

Speaker Intro

Guillaume Tahar obtained his Ph.D from Université Paris Diderot, under the supervision of Anton Zorich. He was a senior postdoctoral fellow in Weizmann Institute of Science and joined BIMSA as an assistant professor in 2022. He contributed to the study of moduli spaces of various flavours of geometric structures on surfaces. His results include proving the existence of closed geodesics in dilation surfaces and the complete characterization of configurations of local invariants realized by a differential on a Riemann surface. His recent research interests include linear differential operators, simplicial arrangements of lines and quantum invariants of knots.

Member Seminar Intro

The BIMSA member seminar is a weekly event during which researchers engage in discussions about their extensive research interests, addressing a diverse audience that includes fellow researchers and all postdoctoral scholars within the institute. This forum provides a unique privilege and an invaluable opportunity for each research faculty member, serving as a speaker, to introduce their research field, promote the subject within the institute, and ignite the potential for future collaborations with other research groups within the institute.

The lecture format consists of a 30-minute colloquium-style presentation, thoughtfully tailored to be accessible to postdoctoral scholars and researchers from diverse disciplines within the institute. Following the presentation, a 15-minute discussion session is anticipated, involving active participation from postdocs representing various fields.

It is mandatory for all postdocs at the institute to actively participate in this event. The enthusiastic involvement of faculty members is greatly valued and will prove mutually beneficial for both the speaker and the junior audience.
