I am a researcher (RTD/A) at the Department of Mathematics of the University of Pavia since October 2021.

In May 2021, I was granted the Italian “Abilitazione Scientifica Nazionale” (Settore Concorsuale:01/A2, Fascia: 2).

Since 2014 I am a member (and, also, a founder) of Curvilinea, a cooperative company whose aim is the popularization of Mathematics.


Previous experiences


Research interests

My area of study is complex algebraic geometry. I’m interested, in particular, in

  • Classification of Calabi-Yau and IHS
  • Classification of surfaces of general type
  • Group actions and automorphisms groups of varieties
  • Geography problems in Algebraic Geometry
  • Moduli spaces of semistable torsion-free sheaves on curves
  • Problems related to the choice of polarizations for torsion-free sheaves on reducible curves
  • Fibered surfaces
  • Toric Geometry
  • Gorenstein Artinian Algebras and Lefschetz Properties

Currently, I’m working on:

  • 1-forms on open sets of the moduli space of smooth curves of genus g and coverings of such spaces;
  • moduli spaces and coherent systems of torsion-free sheaves on nodal curves;
  • Generalization of Brill-Noether loci to torsion-free sheaves on nodal curves;
  • Variations problems on curves and, more generally, on hypersurfaces. In particular, I’m dealing with this problem for families of planar curves;
  • Gordan-Noether’s Theorem and links to standard Artinian Gorenstein algebras;
  • Lefschetz properties for Jacobian rings of cubics and generalizations.
