Professor in applied mathematics (équipe AN-EDP, LMO, Université Paris-Sud)
Coordinator of the MAGA project, funded by the French ANR.

Research topics: computational optimal transport, computational geometry, geometric inference. More generally, I'm interested in the discretization of geometric variational and inverse problems.
