Khalid Koufany

Khalid Koufany is an HDR lecturer in the Faculty of Science and Technology at the University of Lorraine, affiliated with the Analysis and Number Theory research team at IECL (Institut Élie Cartan de Lorraine). His academic work focuses on advanced mathematical structures within non-commutative harmonic analysis and representation theory.

His research interests center on analysis and geometry on symmetric bounded domains, symmetric cones, and causal symmetric spaces. He investigates representation theory of semisimple Lie groups and studies Jordan algebras and Jordan triple systems. His work bridges abstract algebraic structures with geometric interpretations, creating connections between differential geometry and harmonic analysis.

Analysis of his publication record from 2012-2024 reveals consistent contributions to the understanding of conformally covariant operators, symmetry breaking, and spectral theory. His research shows a clear trajectory exploring the interplay between algebraic structures (particularly Jordan algebras) and geometric spaces, with applications to differential operators and harmonic analysis on symmetric domains.

Koufany maintains active research collaborations, as evidenced by his co-authored publications with researchers such as Jean-Louis Clerc, Salem Ben Saïd, and Genkai Zhang. His work appears in prestigious journals including Journal of Functional Analysis, Communications in Mathematical Physics, and International Mathematics Research Notices.
