Research

My work revolves around arithmetic geometry and p-adic methods, as a unifying thread linking p-adic Hodge theory, Galois representations, rigid and logarithmic geometry, Berkovich spaces, and affine lines in pure mathematics.

The core of my research articulates arithmetic geometry and arithmetic dynamics. On the dynamical side I study iteration and the structure of maps in non-Archimedean settings (p-adic and related), as well as over finite fields, congruence rings, groups, and the algebraic-geometric objects arising in those contexts. This set of research lines has its own mathematical motivation. The applications – including systems biomathematics, cryptography, and other links to applied science – constitute in addition a selective use of those ideas and techniques; they do not by themselves define the scope of the programme.
