معرفی
Mehdi Yazdi is a Lecturer in Pure Mathematics at King's College London, part of the Department of Mathematics within the Faculty of Natural, Mathematical & Engineering Sciences. His research focuses on low-dimensional topology, geometry, and dynamics, with particular emphasis on 3-dimensional manifolds, foliations, mapping class groups, and algorithmic aspects of topology. He holds a PhD from Princeton University (2017) and has held postdoctoral fellowships at the University of Oxford, including the Glasstone Research Fellowship in Science, Titchmarsh Research Fellowship, and a UKRI Postdoctoral Research Fellowship.
Education: PhD in Pure Mathematics from Princeton University (2017). Prior to King's College, he was at Oxford from 2017–2021.
Research interests include the study of geometric structures on manifolds, algorithmic problems in topology, and the interplay between dynamics and geometry. His work has contributed to understanding foliations, knot theory, and computational aspects of topological invariants.
Publications span topics like the stability of foliations, Thurston norms, and computational complexity of knot genus, reflecting his expertise in both theoretical and algorithmic dimensions of geometry and topology.
He is a member of the Geometry Group at King's, which explores areas such as algebraic geometry, cohomology theories, and symplectic geometry. His research also engages with broader questions in geometric analysis and low-dimensional dynamics.
