About Me

Since September 2025 I am an associate professor in the Department of Applied Mathematics at the University of Zaragoza. Previously, I have worked as a senior research associate at the University of Oxford, Department of Computer Science, doing research on variants of the constraint satisfaction problem in Standa Živný’s group. I have also been a research assistant at TU Graz, ISEC (previously known as IAIK), where I worked in the area of formal methods under the supervision of Roderick Bloem, and at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Department of Mathematics, where I did my PhD in the areas of probabilistic combinatorics and finite model theory under the supervision of Marc Noy serrano.

In my research, I am broadly interested in Combinatorics, Logic, Complexity Theory, and the intersections of those areas. Currently I am doing research on the computational complexity of promise constraint satisfaction problems (PCSPs) and other related computational problems. Roughly speaking, PCSPs generalize the task of finding a 4-colouring of a 3-colourable graph. This is an active area of research where a wide variety of mathematical tools found use, coming from universal algebra, Fourier analysis, algebraic topology, probabilistic combinatorics, Ramsey theory, and logic. The other major area of research I work actively on is in the asymptotic study of random structures from the perspective of logic. Here, given a random model, the goal is to analyse the limit probability of the properties that can be expressed in a formal language of our choice. This can be done, for example, by considering various combinatorial games on random structures.
