Hello!

A mathematician fascinated by the dynamics of strategic decision-making in large populations, both from a technical and a humanist perspective.

My Research: Mean Field Games

My work is centered on Mean Field Games (MFG), a field that combines insights from:

  • Stochastic Control: Modeling individual decision-making under uncertainty.
  • Partial Differential Equations (PDEs): Describing the evolution of the whole population.
  • Game Theory: Analyzing strategic interactions between agents.

The Humanist Connection

I believe mathematics can be a powerful lens for exploring classical questions in ethics. I draw inspiration from philosophy to ask how we can design systems that promote collective well-being.

My current side project, in collaboration with philosophers, is to adapt extended utilitarianism into mean field game frameworks. The goal is to build models that can explore the consequences of different ethical assumptions on a societal scale.
