About me
I am a postdoc in the Algorithms Research Group in the department of Informatics at the University of Bergen.
Previously, I was a PhD student in the AlGCo team at the LIRMM in Montpellier, France, under the supervision of Ignasi Sau and Dimitrios M. Thilikos.
Here are my thesis and my slides.
My main interests are algorithms and graph theory. My PhD thesis was on parameterized algorithms for graph modification problems, but I’m interested in any problem concerning graphs and/or algorithms.
My paper are here. See also dblp, Google Scholar.
