Alessio Borzì

Alessio Borzì is a postdoctoral researcher in the Nonlinear Algebra Group at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences (MPI MiS), led by Bernd Sturmfels. He completed his PhD at the University of Warwick under Diane Maclagan, following a Bachelor's and Master's at the University of Catania under Marco D'Anna, with additional studies at the Scuola Superiore di Catania. His research focuses on Combinatorics, Algebraic Geometry, Commutative Algebra, and Tropical Geometry, with particular interests in matroids and their interactions with toric geometry.

Borzì’s work spans theoretical and computational aspects, including contributions to software development such as the TropicalToric Macaulay2 package for toric intersection theory. His recent publications address topics like matroid quotients, Lascoux polynomials, and finite graph structures, reflecting a blend of algebraic and combinatorial methodologies.

Publications highlight interdisciplinary approaches, from tropical flag varieties to cyclotomic polynomials in numerical semigroups. Despite no awards listed, his active research profile includes collaborations on preprints and peer-reviewed articles in journals like Journal of Software for Algebra and Geometry and Electronic Journal of Combinatorics.

As a postdoctoral researcher, Borzì contributes to the vibrant scientific community at MPI MiS, where he engages with nonlinear algebra and its applications, supported by his diverse academic background and computational expertise.
