معرفی
Dr. Otto Overkamp is a Research Fellow at the Chair of Algebraic Geometry within the Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Fakultät at Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf (since April 2023). He holds a Ph.D. in Mathematics from Imperial College London (2018). Prior positions include Research Associate roles at Leibniz Universität Hannover (2018–2021) and Academic Visitor at the University of Oxford (2021–2023), supported by a DFG Research Grant. He also served as a College Lecturer at St. Peter’s College, Oxford (2021–2023).
Education:
- Ph.D. in Mathematics, Imperial College London (2018)
Research Interests: Algebraic geometry with applications to number theory and arithmetic, characteristic p methods, algebraic groups, Néron models, Picard functors, and moduli spaces. His work focuses on foundational problems in arithmetic geometry, including Néron models, degeneration of algebraic varieties, and applications to Diophantine geometry.
Publications: Overkamp’s research spans Néron models, moduli spaces, and arithmetic geometry. Recent work addresses conjectures by Bosch-Lütkebohmert-Raynaud and Chai, with contributions to the theory of global Néron models and base change conductors. His articles often bridge algebraic geometry and number theory, addressing degeneration phenomena and cohomological properties of elliptic surfaces.
Teaching: Current courses include Linear Algebra I. Past teaching includes tutorials in Metric Spaces, Complex Analysis, Algebraic Number Theory, and exercise classes in Topology, Elementary Geometry, and Class Field Theory.
Labs/Teams: Active member of the Algebraic Geometry research group at HHU Düsseldorf, collaborating on projects related to Néron models and moduli theory.
