👋🏻 Hello there, I’m Alessandro

I am currently an ETH Fellow and Hermann-Weyl-Instructor at ETH Zürich working within the research group of Rahul Pandharipande.

I finished my PhD in geometry and mathematical physics at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics (MPIM) in Bonn under the supervision of Gaëtan Borot in October 2021. From October 2021 to September 2023 I was a postdoc at the Institut de Physique Théorique (IPhT) in Paris, as part of the ERC-SyG ReNewQuantum with PIs Jørgen E. Andersen, Bertrand Eynard, Maxim Kontsevich, and Marcos Mariño.

I am interested in interactions between geometry and theoretical physics, particularly the enumerative geometry of the moduli spaces of curves and Gromov–Witten theory, topological recursion, integrable hierarchies, large genus asymptotics, and matrix models.
